Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about the next couple of weeks for Ibiza – Cala Nova.
Honestly, mate, I’m looking at a pretty grim stretch ahead. The surf just isn't showing up. This is a beach and reef setup that’s exposed to the swell, but the ocean is basically asleep for the vast majority of the next 16 days.
For the first two weeks, it’s flat. There’s a big gap with no real rideable waves at all. You’ll see some tiny wobbles on the 12th of July, with a swell around 3ft from the East, but the wind is all over the place – cross-shore and onshore – and the wave comment is just "poor." The energy is weak, absolutely nothing to get excited about. The water is way warmer than normal for this time of year, sitting at 81°F which is over 5°F warmer than usual, so that’s a very unusual thing to note.
We get a bit of a pulse on the 24th of July. The swell picks up to 4ft from the Southeast, with a period of 6 seconds, and the combined energy hits 116 (moderate). But even then, the wind is onshore from the SSE, so it’s going to be messy. The following day, the 25th of July, has a cleaner look with a light west wind going cross-offshore, cleaning up a 3ft East swell (energy of 40). That Saturday afternoon might be the only real window where you’d actually want to paddle out. It’s small, but it’ll be smooth.
If you’re a beginner, the swell stays under 5ft for the whole run, so it’s not dangerous, but it’s mostly just flat. Don’t hold your breath. The consistent lack of swell here is pretty normal for this time of year, so it’s not a shock.
Rusty.
