Cala De Meron Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s going on with Cala De Meron. It’s a slow start, so don’t be in a rush to wax up.

The water is sitting at about 69°, which is a little warmer than normal for this time of year – nothing wild, just a nice little bonus.

The first real chance of a wave won’t pop up until the morning of Tuesday, July 28th. The swell is a weak 4ft from the NNW, with a clean 10-second period, but the wind is light and cross-shore. It’s a marginal call, with the combined energy at 281 (moderate). Honestly, it’s nothing to get stoked about.

From there, it’s pretty grim. Wednesday and Thursday are total losses with tiny, weak swell and poor conditions. The energy drops into the triple digits, then down to double digits. It’s almost flat.

The next glimmer of hope shows up on the morning of Sunday, August 2nd. The swell bumps to 4ft from the north, with a short 7-second period, but the real win is the wind: glassy. Combined energy is 181 (moderate). It’s still going to be pretty ordinary, but it’s the best we’ve seen in a week. Monday morning, August 3rd, also has glassy conditions, but the swell is only 3ft. Nothing special, but you could get a few.

The pattern stays small and mediocre through the following week. We get a few more glassy mornings, like Wednesday the 5th and Friday the 7th of August, but the swell is consistently under 3ft. The energy stays in the low-to-mid hundreds, so it’s all pretty weak.

Finally, we get a real spike on the morning of Sunday, August 9th. The swell jumps to 7ft from the WNW, but the period is a short 7 seconds. The wind is light cross-shore, but the combined energy surges to 415 (strong). That’s a lot of water moving, but short-period swell on an exposed beach setup like this means it’s going to be a messy, choppy close-out. For the experienced boys, it might be a fun challenge, but it’s definitely too big for beginners. In the afternoon, it gets a bit bigger at 7ft, but the wind swings cross-onshore with rain showers. That’s going to be a washing machine. If you’re heading out, Sunday morning is your only shot, but don’t expect any kind of quality.

The Standout: Honestly, the only true standout is the glassy morning of Sunday, August 2nd. 4ft from the north, glassy wind, and it’s the most consistent day we’ll see. Crowds are “sometimes” here, so you might have some company. It’s not a world-class wave, but it’s the best of a pretty quiet outlook.

Stay safe, and keep your eyes on the horizon.

Rusty.
