The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk about Son Serra Nova in Mallorca. This is a reef break that’s rarely breaking, so when it does, it’s a moment. The water is 81°F right now, which is much warmer than usual for this time of year – a real bonus.
The first week and a half is a total blank. From the 15th through the 24th, we’ve got flat, tiny, or messy conditions. Nothing’s happening. Swell energy is mostly zero, and the little bumps that show up are too weak and short-period to care about. Crowds don’t matter because there’s no surf.
The first real chance appears on Saturday the 25th. The morning has a small 2ft NNE swell with a light offshore wind from the SW, so it’ll be clean. But the standout is Saturday afternoon. The swell jumps to 6ft from the NNE, with a period of 8 seconds, and the combined energy is moderate (389). The wind goes cross-off from the S, and the model says it’s clean. That’s the best call in the whole 16-day run – a proper, rideable wave at a spot that hardly ever breaks. It’s still marginal, but it’s the only window.
Sunday the 26th gets big, but it’s ugly. Strong onshore winds from the N and NNE at 19 mph will trash that 10ft NNE swell. The energy is very strong (1653), but that’s for the wind and kites, not for paddle surfing. It’s expert-only size, and the wind ruins it.
Monday the 27th morning is interesting. The swell drops to 3ft from the NNE, and the wind goes glassy from the E. The energy is weak (82), but the conditions are clean. If you’re really keen, this is the second-best option – small, but clean.
After that, from the 28th onward, it fades back into tiny, weak, or onshore junk. Don’t get your hopes up.
So, the window is tight. Saturday 25th afternoon is the pick. Son Serra Nova is a rare bird, and this might be your only shot in the 16-day outlook. Keep an eye on it, but don’t clear your schedule.
