The Lowdown
Gutted, folks. Real talk: the next couple of weeks are looking bleak for waves around here. We’ve got a long flat spell ahead, and it’s going to test your patience. The first real surfable waves don’t show up until September 21st, and that’s a far way off. That’s a solid week and a half of nothing, so if you’re desperate, maybe find another hobby for a bit.
The only spot with any kind of recommendation in this whole run is Punta-Xarraca (Ibiza - Punta Xarraca). It’s a beach and reef setup that’s exposed to the north-northeast, and it’s inconsistent, so it’s a fickle one. When it does work, it’ll be on the smaller side.
Looking at the outlook, the best bet is September 22nd. The swell shows up from the NNE with about 4ft of wave, and the period stretches to 9 seconds. It’s not a monster, but it’s something. The wind is a cross-offshore in the afternoon, which should keep things reasonably clean. The energy in the water is moderate at best, sitting at 298. It’s not a day to drop everything for, but it’s probably the pick of a very ordinary bunch.
Before that, the 21st has a bit of swell, around 4ft in the morning with a 7-second period, but the energy is weak (138). It’s surfable, but the comment says it’s “very ordinary conditions,” so don’t get your hopes up. The water temp is 83°F which is 6°F warmer than normal for this time of year—that’s a seriously unusual warm spell, so at least it’ll feel nice out there even if the waves don’t deliver.
The 17th sees a bump of cross-onshore wind and some lumpy conditions, so that’s a write-off for surfing. That day’s more about the wind than the waves. Too messy, too choppy.
So, there you have it. A long dry spell with one slightly promising window on the 22nd. It’s a rare break, so if you’re keen, that’s your window. But don’t hold your breath.
Rusty.
