The Lowdown
Right, folks, Rusty here. Let's be honest about the surf outlook for Ibiza – Punta Xarraca. We’re looking at a pretty grim stretch ahead. The data shows a long run of nothing but "poor surf conditions" for the next week and a half. The first usable wave doesn't even show up until Saturday, the 8th of August, and even then it's a marginal call. That's a solid ten days of nothing on offer, so don't be holding your breath.
The water at Punta Xarraca is running much warmer than normal for this time of year, sitting at 83°, which is a big anomaly.
The only real window of opportunity, and it's a slim one, lands on Saturday, 8th of August. The morning session is where it's at. We've got a tiny 3ft swell pushing in from the NE, with a short period of 5 seconds. The combined energy is weak at just 51, so it's not going to be powerful. But the wind is glassy, absolutely flat calm, which will make for a clean, smooth surface. For a beginner-friendly break like this, that's a major positive. The crowd profile suggests it can be busy, so expect some company.
Later that same afternoon, the swell picks up to 5ft from the NE with a period of 8 seconds, and the energy ramps up to a moderate 244. That's a bit more push, but the wind swings to a cross-offshore breeze at 12 mph. It'll be clean, but a bit bumpier than the morning glass. It's still surfable, but the conditions are marginal.
The rest of the 16-day window? All poor. Small pulses of NE windswell in the 0.3ft to 1ft range with short periods, but nothing to write home about. The wind is often cross-off or cross-on, and on the 13th of August, it gets a bit howling with 16 mph winds, making it choppy and messy.
So, the only play is Saturday the 8th of August at Punta Xarraca. Hit the early glassy session for the cleanest, if weakest, waves. The afternoon has a bit more size but more wind. For the rest of the fortnight, leave the board at home.
Rusty.
