Table - best surf conditions forecast for Ibiza - Cala Nova over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you about this stretch of the coast. I’ve had a good look at the numbers, and the truth is we’re in for a flat spell. The first surfable bump doesn’t show up until the 24th of July, so we’re looking at a solid two-week gap of nothing doing. If you’re just looking to get wet, you’ll be waiting a while.
The only real option on the table is Cala-Nova. It’s a beach and reef setup, exposed to the swell, but the problem is there’s no energy to speak of. From the 10th right through to the 23rd, the combined energy is barely ticking over with values between 0 and 59 (weak energy), with waves mostly under 3 ft. The wind is a mixed bag, but you’ll get a few clean windows on the 14th, 15th, and 16th July mornings when the wind goes light or glassy. On the 14th morning, we get a clean 1 ft from the ESE with a light offshore, and on the 15th morning, a clean 1 ft on the cross-off, but the swell is tiny and weak. The 16th morning is glassy with a tiny 0.7 ft. It’s not surf, really—more of a paddle.
The best chance for a bit of fun lands on Thursday 24th July morning. It’s absolutely glassy, calm wind, with a tiny 0.7 ft from the S. That’s not going to get your heart racing. That afternoon, the swell bumps up to 2 ft from the SSW with a period of 7 seconds, and the combined energy edges up to 26 (still weak). The wind is a gentle cross-onshore, so it’ll be a bit lumpy. For a beginner, this is about as small as it gets, but it’s the only pulse in the whole run.
Honestly, if you’re looking for proper waves, this isn’t the spot or the window. The water temperature is a notable 81°F, which is much warmer than normal for the time of year, so at least a dip won’t be cold. But for surfing? It’s a big fat zero. The beaches and reef here look more interesting for a kite than a paddle when the wind picks up, but even then, the swell is just too small. Keep an eye on the charts, because it tends not to stay this flat forever, and forecasts can change. For now, I’d leave the board at home.
Rusty.
