Table - best surf conditions forecast for Ibiza - Cala Nova over the next 16 days.
Alright, let me put it in real-world terms. The 16-day picture is basically flat – a long stretch of nothing much. The first halfway decent chance to paddle out comes early Saturday morning, July 11th, at Cala Nova (Ibiza). We're looking at a clean 0.3m (that's about 1 foot) south-southwest swell, with a short 5-second period, but a light offshore north wind will keep the surface glassy. The wave energy is tiny – only (4) – so the waves will be weak and wobbly.
Most of the forecast is filled with onshore winds and tiny swell that never breaks a foot. The biggest pulses – up to 0.9m (3 feet) – roll through Tuesday morning July 14th, but the wind is onshore, messing up any shape. The water here is unusually warm, about 81°, which is 6° above the long-term average for this time of year – that's a big anomaly, but it doesn't help the surf.
The only other clean window comes Friday morning July 17th, with a 0.3m (1 foot) southwest swell and a light north cross-offshore wind – combined energy (16). Again, it's weak and short-period.
For the whole period, the best you can hope for is knee-high slop with a clean surface. The break at Cala Nova is a beach-and-reef setup, exposed to southeast swell, but with no real swell energy, it's a lost cause for surfers. Kiteboarders might find more fun in the onshore winds, but for a regular surfer, this is a two-week gap with no real options. Crowds might be absent, but that's because there's nothing to ride.
So, bottom line: don't hold your breath. The cleanest, least bad windows are Saturday July 11th morning and Friday July 17th morning, but they're still tiny. Stay patient – the forecasts can change, but as of now, it's a long, flat dry spell.
