The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming up for the next couple of weeks. I’ll be straight with you – it’s a tough outlook for Son Serra Nova. We’re looking at a long stretch of frustratingly small surf, so don’t get your hopes up for any pumping sessions.
The whole 16-day window is a bit of a bust. There’s a massive gap right at the start with no real surf to speak of, and it stays that way for a long time. The first day with any swell worth mentioning is Sunday, July 26th, but even then, it’s not clean. The water is sitting at a balmy 83°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least a dip will feel good.
The best chance you’ll get is on Sunday afternoon, the 26th. We’ll see a mixed bag of swell pushing 6 ft from the NNE, with a combined energy of 311 (moderate range). The period is short at 7 seconds, so it won’t have much shape. The problem is the wind is a stiff cross-onshore breeze at 15 mph, making it choppy and messy. This spot is a reef, and with that wind and swell, it’s going to be a washing machine. It’s rideable for the die-hards, but it’s not the kind of wave you tell your mates about.
The next little bump comes on Monday morning, the 27th. It’s tiny, with 2 ft from the north, but the wind swings around to a light cross-offshore, which cleans things up. The energy is very weak (29), so you’ll be fighting for scraps. Not a standout, just a slight improvement.
After that, the entire first week of August is a flat spell. From Tuesday the 28th right through to the end of the window, we’re looking at ankle-snappers and flat calm conditions. The combined energy drops to single digits or zero on most days. There’s a hint of a glassy morning on the 5th of August with a tiny 0.7 ft wave, but it’s not enough to paddle for.
Honestly, this is a classic summer lull for this exposed reef. It rarely breaks as it is, and when it does, it needs a specific window. The setup is more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing on the few days we get a cross-shore breeze, but for the rest of us, it’s a blank run. Don’t hold your breath – forecasts can change, but right now, it’s looking grim.
Rusty.
