The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s going on with the waves.
Straight up, this is a tough outlook for Mallorca - Son Serra Nova. The whole 16-day window is a real mixed bag, and honestly, for most of it, you’re better off leaving the board at home. We’re looking at a long stretch of flat, tiny, or just plain messy conditions. There’s a big gap of nothing from the start all the way through to the 20th of August. The only real glimmer of something rideable shows up on the 20th, and even that’s a bit of a wild card.
The first few days are a total write-off. Saturday the 8th kicks off with a tiny 1.0 ft NNE swell, but it’s weak and the wind is all over the place. The water is a very unusual 85°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year. From the 9th through the 19th, it’s either flat or you’ve got tiny dribbles of energy, often with onshore or cross-shore winds. There’s a hint of a clean, glassy morning on the 11th, 12th, and 13th, but with zero swell in the water, it’s just a flat, pretty ocean.
Then, we finally get a pulse of energy. On the morning of Thursday the 20th of August, the swell jumps up to 7 ft from the NNE with a period of 7 seconds. The combined energy hits 459 (moderate), and the conditions are glassy. That’s a big swell for this spot, and because it’s a reef break that rarely breaks and is exposed to the NNE, this is the one to watch. The wind is glassy, which is a huge plus for clean surf. Be warned though, at 7 ft, it’s getting into expert territory. The afternoon stays big at 8 ft, but the wind swings cross-shore, making it messy.
The following days on the 21st and 22nd see the swell dropping and the wind turning onshore, so that window of quality is tight. The 20th morning is the only real standout, and it’s a long-range call, so keep an eye on it.
Stay safe, and don't get too worked up about the flat spells.
Rusty.
