Table - best surf conditions forecast for Ibiza - Punta Xarraca over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – the next 16 days for Punta Xarraca on Ibiza is a tough one. We’re looking at a long stretch of barely-there surf, and it’s going to be a real test of patience. There’s no standout, no day to circle on the calendar. It’s a flat spell with a few crumbs of energy, but nothing worth paddling out for.
The water temp is about average for the time of year, which is a small comfort when you’re sitting there waiting for nothing.
We start off with a gap of no real surf. Monday the 13th and Tuesday the 14th are just tiny, weak waves – 1 ft from the NE with a short period of 4 seconds, and the energy is basically nothing (3 and 1). The wind is light offshore on Monday morning, but the swell is so small it’s just not doing anything. Wednesday the 15th is even worse, with 0.3 ft waves. Thursday the 16th through to Sunday the 20th morning is a real dead zone – no swell at all, just clean or cross-shore conditions with nothing to ride.
Then on Monday the 20th, we see a tiny pulse. The afternoon gets a little bump to 2 ft from the NE, period 5 seconds. The wind goes glassy, and the energy climbs to 21 – still weak, but it’s the most we’ll see. It’s still poor surf, though. Too small and weak to get excited about.
Tuesday the 21st picks up a bit more, with 3 ft from the NNE and NE, period 5-6 seconds, and energy reaching 49 and 92. But the wind is cross-onshore, making it choppy and messy. It’s the biggest swell of the whole run, but the quality just isn’t there for a good surf. This is more of a kite-surfing setup than a clean paddle session.
From Wednesday the 22nd onward, it fades back into tiny waves and flat spells. Energy drops to 39 and then 13, then 5, and eventually back to zero. The last few days from the 24th to the 28th are mostly flat, with a couple of 0.7 ft days on the 26th, but nothing to make a plan for.
So, honestly, if you’re looking to surf here, it’s a no-go. The whole 16-day window is a write-off. This break is inconsistent, and this is one of those blank runs that’s more normal for the area. Forecasts can change, but right now, there’s not a single day that’s worth the paddle.
