Cala De Meron Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the next couple of weeks.

First up, we’ve got Cala De Meron as the only spot in the mix. A beginner-friendly break, fairly consistent, exposed to the north-west. It’s a spot that can fire when the conditions line up, but you’ll want to keep an eye on the wind.

Right now, we’re sitting in a bit of a lull. Thursday the 27th starts off messy with a risk of thunderstorms, a tiny 2 ft NW swell and cross-on breeze. Not worth paddling out for. The afternoon cleans up a little with a cross-off wind and a 2 ft wave, but it’s still pretty ordinary. Friday morning the 28th looks better – a clean 2 ft swell with a 11-second period from the NW and light offshore winds. It’s small, but it’ll be clean. The afternoon jumps to 4 ft with a 10-second period, but it’s cross-shore and a bit choppy.

Now, Saturday morning the 29th – that’s a standout. Glassy conditions, zero wind, and a clean 4 ft NW swell. The water temperature is about average for the time of year, so no surprises there. The combined energy is moderate (226). It’s a great morning for a beginner to get out and have some fun. The afternoon turns onshore and messy, so make the most of the morning.

Sunday the 30th sees the swell picking up to 5 ft, but the wind is cross-on, so it’s not as clean. The combined energy is moderate to strong (479), but the conditions are ordinary. Monday morning the 31st is another glassy opportunity with 5 ft NW swell, and the combined energy is strong (468). That’s a solid session for the more confident beginner. The afternoon goes onshore again.

Tuesday the 1st of September has another glassy morning with 4 ft NW swell. Calm conditions, clean waves. The combined energy is moderate (253). It’s a nice little window. After that, the surf tails off quickly. From Tuesday afternoon right through to the end of the first week of September, it’s a long stretch of tiny, weak, and messy waves. The swell drops to 2 ft – 2 ft, mostly with short periods and poor conditions. The wind is mostly cross or cross-on, and the combined energy is weak (below 100). There’s a solid 8-9 day gap where the surf is not worth a mention.

Then, on Thursday the 10th of September, things get interesting. The morning shows a 6 ft NNW swell with glassy conditions and a 9-second period. The combined energy is strong (547). This is a promising window, but it’s over a week away, so keep it on the radar. Friday morning the 11th sees the swell building to 8 ft from the NNW, with a 9-second period. That’s getting into expert territory – too big for beginners. The combined energy is very strong (826). The wind is light cross-shore, so it could be decent for the experienced crew, but it’s a long-range call, so don’t book the trip just yet.

Overall, the best windows are Saturday morning the 29th of August, Monday morning the 31st of August, and Tuesday morning the 1st of September. After that, you’re waiting until the 10th for the next real chance. Keep an eye on the long-range, but don’t hold your breath.
