The Lowdown
Right then, let's have a look at the charts for Ibiza, specifically Punta Xarraca. I'm not gonna lie to you, this one's a bit of a bummer forecast. We've got a patchy run ahead, with only the faintest whispers of swell.
Looking at the whole 16-day window, there isn't a single standout session that gets the heart racing. The swell is tiny and the wind is rarely our friend. For a spot that's described as exposed to the NNE swell, we just aren't getting any proper push. Most of the time the combined wave energy is in the single or low double digits, which is weaker than weak. A couple of afternoons show energy in the low 20s, but it's nothing to write home about. Right at the start, Tuesday the 25th, we've got a snappy 3ft from the west with a pathetic 4-second period. That wind is a cross-shore, making it choppy and rubbish. The water temp is about what you'd expect for this time of year, nothing wild.
Wednesday and Thursday the 26th and 27th are pretty much flat. The wind goes offshore on Wednesday afternoon and Thursday, but there's simply no swell to enjoy. We go through a dry spell with nearly no surf until Friday the 28th, when a tiny 3ft pulse from the north shows up, but it's bumpy from a fresh cross-onshore. Then it's back to flat or near-flat conditions right through to the start of September.
The morning of Thursday, September 4th might be your best bet. It's glassy with a 2ft swell from the NNE. That's the closest we get to anything rideable, but it's still tiny and a long way off. The next day, Friday September 5th, has a similar little bump with a light offshore from the SSW for the morning. Still small.
Honestly, for most of this, the waves are so weak and short-period that it's not really a paddle surf situation. Given the cross-shore winds and the beach-and-reef setup at Punta Xarraca, this stretch is looking more interesting for a kite than a surfboard.
The long-range stuff on the 7th and 9th offers some offshore winds but again, the swell is barely a ripple. There are no good options in this 16-day window, I'm afraid. Sometimes you get a blank run like this; it's just the way it goes.
