The Lowdown
Alright buddy, let’s break this down in feet and Fahrenheit now, because I know some of you think that way. Same story, different numbers.
Cala Nova is quiet. Real quiet. For the first week and a half, we’ve got next to nothing. From now through the 25th of July, the swell sits at about 0.7ft to 2ft, with short periods between 3 and 6 seconds. Wave energy is tiny—combined energy nowhere near 100. A few glassy mornings like the 15th and 20th are pretty to look at, but there’s nothing to ride.
Between the 22nd and 24th of July, it’s even smaller. Some days just 0.3ft, onshore, and not worth suiting up. It’s a quiet patch, alright.
Things start to wake up around the 25th of July. Swell climbs to 2ft to 3ft by the 26th and 27th. The 26th of July has 3ft waves from the SE/ESE, period 5 seconds, and glassy afternoon conditions with combined energy around 51. A bit lumpy but rideable.
The standout is the 27th of July, Monday afternoon, when we hit 4ft from the ESE with a 6-second period, combined energy up to 74. Winds go glassy—dead calm—and it’s going to be clean. That’s your window.
After the 28th, it fades fast, down to about 2ft again.
Water temps aren’t doing anything weird, it’s average for this time of year. Crowds are possible at Cala Nova from time to time, but with this forecast you’ll have space.
So if you’re waiting for something, the 27th of July is the one. Small, clean, and glassy. It might not be a monster, but it’s all we’re getting.
Rusty.
