The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you – it's a tough stretch for Ibiza right now. Looking at the next fortnight and a bit, we've got a long, flat spell on our hands. There's a bit of activity right at the start, but then things go quiet for days. Don't get your hopes up for any fireworks.
Right then, the only game in town is Ibiza - Punta Xarraca. This exposed beach and reef setup is inconsistent at the best of times, and that's exactly what we're seeing. The water is running a very unusual 84°F for late July, which is over five degrees warmer than normal.
Saturday the 25th kicks off with nothing to write home about. There's a tiny 0.7 ft of north-northeast swell, but it's weak as anything (combined energy of all swells directed here: 6) and the 16 mph cross-on wind from the west-northwest chops it all to bits. Just forget it.
We get a tiny pulse on Sunday the 26th. The swell bumps up to 5 ft from the north, but again, the period is a short 6 seconds, and there's a fresh 16 to 19 mph cross-on wind. It's lumpy, messy, and the wave energy (157-206) is moderate but useless with that wind. Not for paddling.
Monday the 27th through to Thursday the 30th of July sees the swell drop right away, with clean, glassy conditions at times but nothing to ride. The water goes flat.
Then from Friday the 31st of July all the way to Sunday the 9th of August, it's a dead ocean. Day after day of zero swell energy registered here. A few glassy mornings on the 3rd, 4th, and 8th of August would be beautiful to look at, but there are no waves under them. On the 5th of August we see a tiny 1 ft from the north-northeast with a 5-second period, but it hardly registers.
Honestly, if you're in Ibiza for the surf, you're out of luck. This stretch is a dead loss. Even the tiny blips of swell are badly timed with the wind. For kite surfing with these clean onshores, it might be more interesting, but for a paddle surfer? Nope.
Keep an eye out, forecasts can change, but for now, don't even bother packing a board.
Rusty.
