The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – it’s a tough stretch for the island. There’s a long, quiet gap from now until the second week, so patience is the name of the game.
We’re looking at Mallorca - Son Serra Nova (Spain) and honestly, the first week and a half is a write-off. The water is very warm, sitting at 84°F which is a huge 6°F warmer than usual for this time of year – feels like a bath, but the ocean is flat. From Monday 3rd of August through to Friday 14th, we’re staring at a desert. The swell is either non-existent or tiny—0.7ft to 2ft at best—with periods so short (2 to 6 seconds) they barely qualify as waves. The combined energy is laughable, well under 100 (0-44) for the whole period. Even on the mornings where the wind goes glassy, there’s just nothing to ride. It’s a frustrating stretch of flat, clean, glassy water with no push.
The only glimmer of hope, and it’s a long-shot, comes on Saturday 15th August. The morning sees a jump in swell to 7ft from the NNE with a period of 7 seconds. The combined energy finally hits a respectable 403. This is a solid pulse, but it’s big. At 7ft, with that short period, it’s going to be a lumpy, powerful shorebreak. This is strictly for experienced surfers only. The wind is light cross-onshore from the NNW, which will keep it from being totally clean. The afternoon pushes 6ft and 438 energy, but it turns onshore from the NE. Honestly, at this size with that wind, this spot might be more fun for the kite surfers than a paddle surfer. For a surf, it’s a high-risk, low-quality option.
Later in the window, on Monday 18th August, the swell drops away again. It’s a real shame because the 17th has a nice SSW offshore wind in the morning (9 mph) but the swell is tiny and weak. The whole 16-day outlook is a bust. We’ve got a huge gap of flatness, then one day of messy, big swell, then back to nothing. Sometimes it’s just like this.
Rusty.
