The Lowdown
Alright mates, Rusty here. Let’s talk about Son-Serra Nova out on Mallorca for the next couple weeks. I gotta say it plain—there’s nothing. This reef hardly ever breaks, and this 16-day stretch is a full-on flat spell.
We start Wednesday July 15th. Water temp is a warm 81°, which is way warmer than usual—nearly 5° above average for this time of year. Unusual, but doesn’t matter cause there’s no surf. Combined energy is a pitiful 5 (weak), and the swell is knee-high 1ft from the ESE with a short 5-second period. Wind is glassy, but the wave comment says it all: poor surf conditions. And it only gets worse.
First week is a total bust. Thursday the 16th: a tiny 0.3ft easterly pulse with a 6-second period and a cross-onshore breeze—not even worth a look. Energy stays in single digits or zero. Friday and Saturday morning have a little bump of 0.7-1ft but the period drops to 2-5 seconds and winds are cross-onshore or glassy on the 18th morning, but the swell is just too small. By Sunday the 19th, same story. Monday the 20th has 1ft NNE swell with a 5-second period and glassy wind, but still tiny and weak. This reef needs a decent pulse; 1ft at 5 seconds is barely a ripple.
Second week teases a bit. Tuesday the 21st sees a bump to 2-2ft from NNE/NE with a 6-second period, energy up to 37. Still weak (two digits), wind light cross-onshore. Not clean, not strong. Wednesday the 22nd morning goes glassy with 1ft NNE 6-second swell, energy 14—nothing exciting. Thursday the 23rd and Friday the 24th bring a bit more: 2-3ft NNE swell, period 6-8 seconds, energy hitting 99 on Friday afternoon. That’s the highest of the whole outlook, but still moderate at best. Cross-onshore and onshore winds mess up the surface. Wave comment still says poor surf conditions. For a reef that rarely breaks, you need a solid groundswell—this is weak, short-period windswell.
After the 24th it fades. Saturday the 25th drops to 2ft, then 1ft, then by Sunday the 26th it’s 0.7ft. From Monday the 27th onward it’s all zeros—no swell at all. Final days of the month are flat and clean with offshore winds, but there’s nothing to ride.
Bottom line: complete blank run. No good surf options in this 16-day window. For an area where Son-Serra Nova rarely breaks anyway, this kind of stretch is pretty normal. Keep the board in the car for another time.
Rusty.
