The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this is a tough one for Ibiza.
We’ve got a 16-day window that starts with a real flat spell. For the first week and a half, from Wednesday 29 July right through to the evening of Tuesday 11 August, it’s a total write-off. The swell is tiny, the period is short, and every single session is flagged as poor surf conditions. There’s a few days in there with clean morning winds, like the 4th of August, but the swell is just too small to do anything with. That’s a long gap of nothing.
Then, things finally show a pulse on the morning of Saturday 8 August. That’s your one standout. Cala-Nova picks up a new 4 ft swell from the NE, with a period of 7 seconds. The combined energy jumps to a moderate 212 – the only real energy in the whole period. The absolute best part is the wind: glassy, dead calm. That’s rare and it’ll make the surface like a mirror. The water is a very warm 84°F, which is about 5°F warmer than normal for this time of year. That’s unusual, but it’s nice for a session in boardies.
That Saturday morning is the only real window of quality. The swell is still small, so it’s a log or a funboard kind of day, but for a spot that’s been dead for over a week, it’s a welcome change. The afternoon gets a bit onshore and messy, so hit it early. After that, it’s back to tiny, weak surf for the rest of the forecast. This is a long run of small stuff, but it’s the kind of thing that can change with a new weather system – don’t lose hope, but this one’s a waiting game for now.
Rusty.
