The Lowdown
Alright, I’ve given the 16-day window a good look, and it’s a quiet stretch for Ibiza. We’ve only got Punta Xarraca to talk about, and the forecast is mostly flat with a few tiny waves way out in the distance.
The first real suggestion of any surf doesn’t pop up until Tuesday, 10 September. Before that, from now all the way to the morning of the 10th, it’s almost nothing. There are days showing tiny bumps under 2ft and wave energy in the single digits – basically flat. A few days in the middle, like the 5th, 6th, and 7th, the energy literally reads zero. It’s a long, quiet spell.
When we finally see a pulse on Tuesday, 10 September, the morning has swell around 2ft from the NNE, with a 6-second period. Combined energy is 26 – weak stuff. The wind is offshore from the SSE at 6 mph, so it’s clean, but the swell is tiny and weak. The afternoon holds at about 2ft from the NE with a slightly better 8-second period, energy at 28. Still nothing special.
The real highlight, if you can call it that, is Tuesday, 15 September. The morning offers up 4ft from the NE with a 7-second period, and the combined energy jumps to 132 – finally some moderate push. The wind is cross-offshore from the WSW at 9 mph, keeping things clean. It’s described as "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions," so keep the excitement in check. The swell direction (NE) isn’t the absolute best for this spot (NNE), but it’s close enough to break.
Wednesday, 16 September follows with 3ft from the NE in the morning, energy at 102, but with a cross-on wind from the NE at 6 mph – not ideal.
Water temperature early in the period (around 10 September) was 82°F, running about 4°F warmer than average, so the water is noticeably warm.
Overall, it’s a quiet run. This break is naturally inconsistent, so a stretch like this isn’t a total shock. For kite surfers, the afternoon of 15 September with stronger cross-off winds might look more interesting than for paddlers. But for surfers on a board, it’s a tough outlook. Keep watching – forecasts can change.
