Cala De Meron Surf Forecast and Surf Report

G’day, I’m Rusty. Let’s look at what’s on offer for Cala De Meron over the next 16 days. It’s gonna be a tough stretch for the most part – we’re talking a lot of ordinary, marginal, and poor surf conditions, with the swell staying small and wind often messing with things. The best you’ll find is a couple of decent windows, but don’t expect much to write home about. The water temp is sitting at 69.8°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year – a nice little bonus if you’re getting in. The energy in the water is generally weak, with combined swell energy values mostly in the double digits, but there are a few pulses that push into the moderate to strong range. Surf gets going on Thursday the 3rd of September, after a gap of no surf recommendations before that.

Thursday 3rd September – First up, and it’s not looking good. We’ve got a tiny 2ft swell from the NW with a period of 7 seconds, but the wind is a cross-shore breeze from the ENE at 6 mph, making it choppy and messy. Combined energy is just 43 – weak as. The afternoon doesn’t improve either, with a bit more chop. No point paddling out here.

Friday 4th September – The morning offers a glimmer. The swell is still only 2ft from the NW, but the wind goes glassy from the north at 3 mph. It’s clean, but the waves are very ordinary – small, weak, and inconsistent. The combined energy is 59. If you’re a beginner and just want to bob around, maybe, but it’s not exciting. The afternoon turns cross-on and choppy again.

Saturday 5th September – Now we’re talking a bit more size. The swell picks up to 4.3ft from the NNW in the morning, with a period of 14 seconds – that’s a long-period groundswell, so there’ll be energy and shape, but it can be tricky at a beach break. Wind is cross-shore from the east at 9 mph, creating a bit of chop. Combined energy jumps to 609 – moderate. The afternoon sees 5ft with a 13-second period and 762 energy, still cross-shore. This is marginal surf, but it’s the best of the early week. The direction (NNW) matches the optimum swell direction, which is a good sign. It’s a bit much for beginners at 5ft, but okay for intermediates. Crowds are listed as “sometimes,” so you might get a few out.

Sunday 6th September – Swell drops to 3.3ft in the morning from the NNW with 11 seconds – 275 energy. The wind is light cross-shore from the WNW at 6 mph, making it a bit ripply. The afternoon bumps back to 5ft from the NW, 10 seconds, and 530 energy but with a stronger cross-shore breeze. Still marginal.

Monday 7th September – A small 2.6ft swell from the NW with a 12-second period, but the wind is light and cross from the west at 3 mph in the morning – not
