The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's get into it.
Right off the bat, I gotta be honest with you, it's a real tough stretch for Son Serra Nova. We're looking at a long, dry spell of poor surf conditions that drags on for nearly two weeks. Not a single recommendation in the first 13 days. The wind is messy, the swell is tiny, and it's just a whole lot of nothing. The first hint of anything interesting doesn't show up until the very end of the month.
Starting Friday the 17th through to the end of July, the wave energy is practically non-existent. We're talking about swells that are less than 3 ft, mostly from the north, with periods so short they're barely a breeze. The combined energy is pitifully low, often single digits (1 to 3), and nothing is breaking with any quality. It's a desert out there.
The first real blip on the radar appears on Wednesday the 29th of July. For the morning session, we get a bit of a pulse from the ESE pushing 5 ft with a 7-second period. The combined energy jumps to 165 (moderate), but the wind is a light cross-onshore. It's still not enough to call it good, but it's the first sign of life. The same goes for the morning of Thursday the 30th of July, with a similar 4 ft ESE swell (113 energy) and same light cross-onshore breeze.
The *only* time this spot looks like it might be worth a paddle is on Friday the 31st of July. The morning brings a big jump in size, with an 8 ft swell from the NNE, period stretching to 9 seconds. The combined energy hits a massive 1044 (strong) – that's some serious water moving. But the wind is a messy cross-onshore from the NE at 9 mph, making it a bit lumpy. It's a marginal forecast, big enough that it's only for the experienced crew. This is a reef break that rarely breaks, so seeing it with this much energy is a big deal, but the wind is the spoiler. The afternoon gets worse with an onshore blast of 22 mph, completely ruining it.
So, what's the call? The standout, if you can call it that, is the morning of Friday the 31st of July. It's the only time the swell is big enough to get the blood pumping, but it's a gamble with the wind. Don't get your hopes up for anything before that. This is a spot that rarely breaks, and this forecast shows exactly why.
Rusty.
