The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cookin' for Ibiza's Cala Nova. I gotta be straight with you, this forecast is a bit of a heartbreaker. We're lookin' at a long, long stretch of flat, junk conditions. The combined swell energy is a measly 11 at best in the early days, so don't even bother getting your hopes up.
From Monday the 27th of July right through to Monday the 10th of August, it's a total write-off. We're talking tiny, short-period wind swells, mostly from the SE, with onshore or cross-onshore winds messing up any chance of a clean wave. The water is a balmy 84°F here, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, but that's the only thing going for it. You'll be sitting on a flat, choppy sea if you paddle out. Honestly, for a beach-and-reef setup like this, the conditions are more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer. The combined energy of all swells directed here is weak, clocking in at single and low double digits.
The only glimmer of hope is way out there, on Tuesday the 11th of August. The morning shows a bit of life with a 3.9ft swell from the NE, with a period of 7 seconds. The combined energy jumps to 139, which is moderate, and the wind is light and cross-shore, which could clean it up a bit. It's still a short-period swell, so not the best shape, but it's the only thing on the entire 16-day menu that even qualifies as a wave. It's way too far out to get excited about, but it's the one to watch. For a beginner spot, that 3.9ft might be pushing it, but nothing else is even close.
So, bottom line: a huge gap of flatness until the 11th of August. That one morning is the only stand out, and it's a long-range promise, not a guarantee. Everything else is a skip.
