The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for Cala Nova.
Honestly, mate, it’s a pretty flat and quiet stretch for the next couple of weeks. The first real pulse of energy doesn't show up until late in the window. We’ve got a long gap of nothing but tiny, choppy dribble from the 11th right through to the morning of the 26th of September. Most days you’re lookin’ at ankle-to-barely-knee-high slop with onshore or cross-onshore winds messin’ it up. Not much to get excited about.
The one standout – and I mean the *only* one – lands on Saturday the 26th of September, early morning. A clean, glassy calm settles over the beach, and a solid 6ft NE groundswell rolls in with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy jumps right up to 361 – that’s proper moderate-to-strong energy feelin’ to it. That’s a wave with some push, and with zero wind, it’ll be as clean as a whistle. Now, at that size, it’s really for the experienced crew – beginners will find it too meaty. And because the period is a solid 8 seconds, it’s not a long-period groundswell, so it should hold some shape on the beach-and-reef setup. Crowds can be around sometimes here, so expect company if the word gets out.
The rest of the fortnight? Honestly, it’s mostly a write-off. A bit of breeze and limp waves. For one morning only, Cala Nova will come alive.
Rusty.
