The Lowdown
Alright, let’s break it down. The first real surf window doesn’t kick in until Monday the 16th of September, so there’s a little wait before the good stuff arrives.
The pattern builds nicely mid-week and keeps delivering solid waves through to the end of the month, with a couple of days that’ll get the stoke going.
Monday morning (16th September) shows La Nora picking up a 3ft swell from the NW, period around 10 seconds. Winds are glassy, dead calm, so expect clean, smooth surfaces. Combined energy is moderate (371). It’s a decent start, but the real magic comes later.
Thursday morning (19th September) is the standout. Swell hits 7ft from the NNW, period 13 seconds—a proper groundswell. Glassy conditions, no wind. Combined energy is strong (1311). This is for intermediate to advanced surfers. The water is 70°, about 3° warmer than average, so noticeably warmer for this time of year.
Friday morning (20th September) is another gem: 4ft from the NNW, period 12 seconds, combined energy 668. Glassy again. Clean, lined-up, and punchy.
Saturday morning (21st September) pushes up to 6ft from the NNW, period 14 seconds, combined energy 1355. Light cross-shore wind, but it’s powerful and long-period. Best for experienced heads.
Into the second week, Sunday morning (29th September) brings 5ft from the NW, period 10 seconds, glassy calm. Combined energy moderate (533). Clean, fun waves.
Later in the forecast, Saturday morning (5th October) gives a glassy 3ft from the NW. Not huge, but clean and easy to surf.
The best of the whole run is Thursday 19th September morning: 7ft, long period, glassy, strong energy. That’s the one to pencil in if you’re intermediate or above.
La Nora can get crowded on those good days, so expect company.
Keep your eyes on the glassy windows—they’re the keys to the best sessions.

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.
