The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here with the lowdown on Son Serra Nova. Let’s be honest, this stretch is as quiet as it gets for the next two weeks. We’re staring down a long, stubborn flat spell with only tiny scraps, and nothing that’s gonna get your heart pumping.
Right now, starting today, the 25th of July, we’ve got a tiny, weak pulse. Barely a ripple, with a 0.7ft swell from the north and a period of just 5 seconds. The wave energy is next to nothing at 2. The wind is onshore, and the water is a balmy 83°, which feels about normal for summer, but it’s not worth paddling out for.
We scrape through the next few days with some small, short-period north swell. Sunday the 26th sees a knee-high 3ft wave from the northeast, but the wind is a cross-onshore breeze at 16 mph, making it choppy with a reading of 35 (weak energy). Sunday afternoon pushes up to 6ft from the north-northeast, but again, that 16 mph cross-onshore wind just messes it up. It’s not the size; it’s the conditions. Monday and Tuesday offer tiny glassy windows in the mornings with 2ft to 3ft swell, but the swell period is too short to do much. For the rest of the week, from the 29th through to the 5th of August, it’s a ghost town. Day after day of zeros on the energy scale. We’re talking a full week of flat, dead calm conditions. There’s simply nothing to recommend.
Now, late in the window, there’s one tiny glimmer. On Thursday the 6th of August, during the afternoon, we see a lift to 5ft from the north-northeast with a period of 7 seconds and 238 (moderate energy). But the wind is cross-onshore, and the forecast calls it “marginal.” It’s the only bump of energy in the entire two weeks, and it’s still not clean.
Honestly, for this spot, a long blank run is pretty normal. It’s an exposed reef that rarely breaks, needing a specific north-northeast swell and clean offshore wind to work. The optimum swell direction is NNE, and we do get that direction on the 6th, but the wind just doesn't cooperate. Until the wind swings properly offshore (SSW), it’s going to stay messy. Keep it on the radar, but don't hold your breath.
Rusty.
