The Lowdown
G'day, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you about the outlook for Mallorca, specifically Son Serra Nova. Honestly, mate, it's a tough one. We're looking at a 16-day window, and the truth is, there's nothing on the menu that’s worth paddling out for. The swell is flat to tiny the whole way through, and the conditions are mostly messy or just non-existent. It's a reef break that rarely breaks, and this forecast is proving exactly why.
The whole period is a write-off for surf. From the 13th of July right through to the 28th, we’re seeing combined swell energy readings that barely hit double digits, with most days sitting between 1 and 28 (very weak energy). The wave heights are laughable – we’re talking 0.7ft to 3ft at best, with periods so short (3 to 6 seconds) that there’s no power behind them. The wind is mostly cross-onshore or onshore, which just chops up what little bump there is. There are a couple of glassy moments on the 15th and 26th of July, but with swell heights of 1.0ft and energy of just 5 (weak), you’d be bobbing around on a lake.
The water is a notable 82°F and the anomaly is 6°F, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year. Feels like a bath, but it won't help the waves.
Bottom line: for the next two weeks, there’s nothing to chase. The setup is more interesting for a kite than a paddle, if you’re into that. For the rest of us, it’s a flat spell, and given the "rarely breaks" nature of this spot, it’s a more normal run of bad luck than anything surprising. Forecasts can change, but right now, I’d keep the board in the car.
