The Lowdown
G’day, I’m Rusty. Let’s run through what’s happening at La Nora.
Right now the water temp is about 70°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year – nothing crazy, just a nice little bonus.
The first real stand-out is Wednesday, September 9th in the morning. The wind goes glassy out of the east, and you’ve got a 4ft groundswell from the NNW with an 11-second period. Combined swell energy is at 522 (moderate). It’s clean, small, but rideable – that’s your best early call.
Then Thursday, September 10th morning is also worth a look – dead calm, glassy across a 4ft NNW swell, 11-second period, combined energy around 318 (moderate). Clean surf for sure.
But the standout of the whole window is Saturday, September 19th morning. Swell jumps to 6ft from the NNW, period around 12 seconds, and combined swell energy hits 793 (strong). Wind is light and cross-shore from the east – not perfect offshore, but clean enough. This is the biggest, most energetic swell of the whole window, and still fine for solid intermediates. Might be a bit much for beginners, but anyone with some experience will be stoked.
Between these days, there are long gaps – the first real surf shows up on the 7th with a small glassy morning, then a quiet spell from the 11th through the 14th with barely anything. Most afternoons are messy with cross-onshore or onshore wind. The break is fairly consistent overall, so this lull is a bit of a drag, but things pick up again mid-month toward the 19th.
La Nora is a beach and point setup, and with that longer-period groundswell, the point will handle it better where waves draw off the bank. Crowds can be often, so those clean mornings might feel a bit busy – still worth it.
Best bets: Wednesday, September 9th morning for clean small waves, and Saturday, September 19th morning for the real punch – that’s your top pick.
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.
