The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s cookin' at La Nora. The pattern is a slow start, a few solid windows, and one morning that’s the clear winner.
The first few days are a total wash. Thursday the 3rd is a mess with onshore wind and a tiny 2ft swell. Friday morning the 4th is glassy but the swell is still only 2ft with weak energy. It’s surfable, but you’re scratching for anything. The rest of that day and the next look poor, with small, choppy waves.
The first real chance comes on Saturday morning the 5th. The swell jumps to 4ft from the NNW, with a period of 13 seconds and moderate energy (571). The wind is a cross-shore from the east, so it’ll be a bit bumpy, but it’s the first proper swell of the forecast.
The standout, the one you don’t miss, is the morning of Sunday the 13th. The water is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, sitting at 70°. This is the session. We’re talking 5ft of clean NNW groundswell, with a long period of 14 seconds and strong energy (884). The wind? Glassy. Dead flat. Perfect. The swell direction is spot on for La Nora. It’s not too big for a good intermediate, and those clean conditions will make it a dream. That’s the best on offer.
If you miss that, the following Wednesday morning, the 16th, offers another glassy session with 3ft waves from the NW. It’s smaller, but it will be a clean, fun morning with moderate energy (200).
The second week is a bit of a lull. There are some clean mornings with small, 2-3ft waves, but the real action is the 13th. The energy fades away towards the end of the period, with the 17th and 18th looking very weak.
So, the plan: be patient through the first week. The absolute best session is Sunday morning, the 13th of September. Get out there when it’s glassy. The rest is for the keen.
Rusty.

Information about the La Nora Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for La Nora provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at La Nora can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our La Nora surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (La Nora) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for La Nora may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
La Nora is 7 km (4 miles) from the city of Gijon. If you plan a holiday in Asturias, look for hotels and other accommodation in Gijon. Gijon has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
