Right then, let's take a look at what's cookin' for Ibiza. I gotta be straight with you, this 16-day window is a tough one for surfers. There's not a single recommendation across the whole period, every single time slot is marked as poor surf conditions. That's a real blank run for Cala Nova.
The first few days from July 7th are a write-off. Tiny, weak swells – we're talking 0.3ft to 1ft with periods under 6 seconds. That's just bump on the beach, not surf. The wind's no help either, mostly onshore or cross. The combined wave energy is pitiful, barely hitting double digits (3), so there's just nothing to work with. It’s a tough start.
We eventually see a slight lift in energy around Monday the 13th. The swell bumps up to 2ft from the east with a 7-second period, and on the Monday morning the wind goes glassy. That's the best window we get. The wave energy climbs a bit (25) but that's still weak energy. Even then, the scores are a flat zero.
Later in the week, the 16th of July has a morning glass-off with 1ft from the SSW. Then on Sunday the 19th, another glassy morning. But again, the swell is tiny and the period is short. By the 20th we get the biggest energy reading of the whole period (20) with a 2ft swell from the SSW and a 6-second period, with clean offshore winds in the morning. That's the most promising it gets, but it's still a long way from ridable. It’s the kind of day where you might find a knee-high dribbler if you’re really keen, but there’s no power behind it. The rest of the time is dominated by tiny, wind-affected slop.
Honestly, for Cala Nova, a run this flat is a bit more normal for the area. The water’s about the same as usual, nothing unusual there. For a beginner-friendly beach and reef break like this, you need a pulse of decent groundswell, and there's just nothing on the horizon. The setup here with small swell and breezy afternoons looks more interesting for a kite session than a proper paddle.
