The Lowdown
Alright, let’s take a look at the situation in local terms. Honestly, this 16-day window is a dud for surf at Cala Nova. You’re looking at a whole lot of nothing, with only tiny, weak waves showing up here and there, and mostly messy conditions.
Starting Monday the 14th of September. Morning is glassy with a light offshore from the NW, but the swell is a pathetic 0.3ft from the NE. Combined energy is just (1). Water temp is way warmer than normal at 82°, about 5° above average – that’s a big deal, but it doesn’t do anything for the surf. Afternoon gets some onshore breeze and it’s flat.
Tuesday the 15th and Wednesday the 16th are flat or with only tiny windswell, and cross-shore or onshore winds keep it bumpy. Nothing over 0.7ft.
Thursday the 17th brings a slight bump: 2ft from the E in the morning under a clean cross-offshore NNE wind. Energy is still low at (14). In the afternoon, it’s 2ft but the wind goes cross-shore at 15 mph, ruining it. Risk of thunderstorms.
Friday the 18th and Saturday the 19th stay small – 2ft to 3ft from the ESE, but onshore cross-winds keep the surface messy. Energy peaks at (70) Saturday morning, but it’s still weak and short-period.
Sunday the 20th morning is clean again with a cross-offshore NNE breeze and 2ft from the SE, but the period is short (6 seconds). Not much push.
From Monday the 21st right through the end of September, it’s essentially flat. A few mornings with glassy conditions, but swell is 0.3ft to 1ft. You’d be lucky to find a wave you can stand up on.
No true standout in this window. The only thing worth mentioning is that warm water, but for surfing? It’s a hard pass. Save your energy.
