The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Mallorca’s Son Serra Nova. I’ll be straight with you – this is a tough one. The first recommendation doesn’t even pop up until a week from now, on the 9th of August. So, we’ve got a long, dry gap from the start right through to that Sunday morning. For the first seven days, the surf is flat, tiny, or just plain messy with no real energy to speak of. It’s a quiet spell, and that’s not unusual for this spot in high summer.
The first real pulse of swell shows up on the morning of Sunday, 9th August. We see a 3ft swell from the NNE, but with a short period of 4 seconds and a stiff cross-onshore wind from the ENE at 16 mph, it’s going to be a choppy, poor-quality mess. The combined wave energy is only 40 (weak), so it’s not doing much for us. Not worth paddling out for.
The afternoon of the 9th is where it gets a bit interesting, if you’re an expert. The swell jumps to 6ft from the NNE, with the period stretching to 8 seconds. The energy jumps to 395 (moderate), but the wind is still howling cross-onshore at 12 mph. That’s going to make it a real battle. The wave height is over 5ft, so it’s too big for beginners, and with that wind, only the most experienced locals are going to get any joy out of it. Honestly, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
From the 10th of August onward, the swell drops back down. The mornings offer some glassy conditions, like on the 11th and 12th, but the swell is tiny – 1ft to 1.0ft from the NNE or N. The energy is a weak 10 or less. It’s clean, but there’s just no oomph. The afternoons get ruined by onshore winds. This is a reef break that rarely breaks, and to be honest, it’s not showing any signs of firing in this window.
Standout: There isn’t a true standout. The only period with any size is the afternoon of the 9th of August, but it’s too windy and messy to recommend. Nothing else comes close.
Rusty, signing off.
