The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let's get into it, and I gotta be straight with you—this is a tough one for Ibiza's Cala Nova. The whole 16-day window is looking pretty grim for a proper paddle. We've got a serious lack of swell energy, and the conditions are just not cooperating.

The water is sitting at a balmy 84°F, which is way warmer than usual for this time of year—over five degrees above normal, so that's a real standout. But that's about the only highlight.

The first week, from Friday the 7th right through to the 14th, is a total write-off. We're looking at tiny, weak waves, mostly under 3ft, with periods under 6 seconds. The combined energy is barely a whisper, with values like 1 or 2 (1 to 2). And the wind is constantly cross-on or onshore, making it choppy and messy. There's just nothing to ride.

There's a little blip on Monday the 17th afternoon. The wind finally swings offshore from the NW, which is the clean direction here, and we get a pulse of swell from the NE at 5ft with a period of 6 seconds. The combined energy jumps to 143 (moderate energy). It's described as "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions," so it's not a total loss, but it's not a standout. That 5ft is a bit much for beginners, but it's not big enough for the experts to get excited about. The short 6-second period means it'll be a bit crumbly and not as punchy.

After that, we're back to flat or near-flat conditions through to the end of the forecast on Saturday the 22nd. The combined energy drops back to single digits and low double digits. Wind stays mostly onshore or cross, keeping things messy.

So, to be honest, there's no true standout, no "best on offer" this time around. For a spot like Cala Nova, which is an exposed beach and reef, a blank run like this is pretty normal. With the wind and swell patterns we're seeing, this setup actually looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing, especially on those days when the wind is up and the swell is small. Keep an eye on the forecasts, things can change, but for now, I'd leave the board at home.
