The Lowdown
Howdy, Rusty here. Gotta be honest – this 16-day forecast is a tough one. The only real wave action is right at the start, and it’s not pretty. After that, you’re looking at a long, flat stretch of over a week before a very ordinary bump of swell tries to show up near the end.
The only window with any real push is at Punta Xarraca (Ibiza) on Sunday the 26th of July. The morning has a 5ft swell from the NNW, but it’s short period at 6 seconds and the combined energy is only moderate at 131. A stiff 30 km/h onshore wind from the NNE is ruining it, just chopped and poor. The water is way warmer than usual, sitting at 84°F – a big 6°F anomaly for this time of year. Weird.
By Sunday afternoon, the swell drops to 4ft with a cross-onshore wind, still no good. Monday the 27th and Tuesday the 28th see the swell crash to barely 1ft and 1ft, short period, clean wind but nothing to ride. This is an inconsistent beach and reef spot, and this run proves it. The combined energy numbers are in the single digits, a total dud.
Then from Wednesday the 29th of July all the way through to Thursday the 6th of August, it’s a flat spell. Over a week of zero swell. Winds are light and often clean, but you can’t surf flat water. That kind of blank run is more typical for this area.
There’s one brief flicker on Thursday the 6th of August afternoon. Swell bumps to 4ft from the NE, still a weak 6-second period, but the combined energy hits 93 – the highest in the whole outlook. Winds are light and cross-offshore, cleaning it up. The file calls it “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions”. Not a standout, but it’s the only option in the second week. After that, Friday the 7th drops to knee-high with glassy wind, and Saturday the 8th sees 4ft from the ENE but with cross-shore chop. Still poor.
No real winner here. If you’re itching for a paddle, the best shot is the afternoon of Thursday the 6th of August for a clean, small wave on a longboard. Don’t expect much.
Rusty.
