The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let's take a look at what we've got for the next couple of weeks. Honestly, it's a tough stretch. The outlook for the whole 16-day window is pretty flat. There's a long gap from now, starting on the 6th of August, with not a single day offering anything worth paddling out for until the very end.

So, let's get real. We're looking at Cala Nova (Ibiza - Cala Nova) as the only spot on the map, and it's a beach and reef setup that's usually best for beginners. But right now, it's not delivering.

For most of the forecast, we're seeing tiny, weak swell with combined energy levels in the single digits – barely enough to ruffle the surface. The water temp is about 84°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, but that's about the only notable thing. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore from the SSE or E, keeping any hope of a clean wave at bay. There are some glassy mornings, like on the 7th of August, but there's literally no swell to ride, so it's a flat calm.

We do see one small spike right at the end. On the 18th of August, a Tuesday, the swell picks up a touch. The morning will be glassy, with a small 3ft swell from the ENE, but the period is a short 4 seconds. That's just windswell, weak and bumpy. By the afternoon, it gets a little bigger at 4ft from the ENE, with period of 6 seconds, and the energy climbs to 155 (moderate wave energy). But the wind swings cross-onshore from the SSE. This is the most size we'll see, but the quality is shot by the wind, so it's a no-go for a good surf. It's a shame, because that ENE direction is the optimum for Cala Nova, but the conditions just aren't cooperating.

After that, it drops straight back to tiny, weak surf for the rest of the window. It's a real flat spell. For a spot like this, a blank run isn't uncommon, but it still stings. The setup would honestly look more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer on the few days with a bit of chop.

Rusty.
