The Lowdown
G'day, I'm Rusty. Let's talk about Son Serra Nova in feet.
Right off the bat, this is a tough stretch for Mallorca's Son Serra Nova. This spot only breaks on rare occasions, and for the first week and a half, it's gonna be a long wait for anything worthwhile. The water temp is a scorching 83°, which is way warmer than usual for this time of year, so at least the swim will be nice.
From now until the 26th of July, you're looking at a whole lot of nothing. Tiny dribbles, poor surf conditions, and winds that are all over the place. It's a proper blank run. There's a few moments of glassy conditions on the morning of the 23rd and 24th, but the swell is so small you'd be better off with a paddleboard.
Then, finally, Sunday the 26th of July in the afternoon, things get interesting. That's your standout. We get a jump in swell to 5ft coming from the NNE. The combined energy hits a solid 371, which is a moderate to strong reading. What makes this special is the wind – glassy, dead calm. It's a reef break, so that long period of 9 seconds will wrap in nicely, giving you clean, lined-up waves. This is for the intermediates, as 5ft is pushing it for beginners. Keep in mind it's a "rarely breaks" spot, so if it's firing, grab it.
After that, Monday the 27th has a morning of clean, 2ft swell with light offshore winds from the SSW, but it's small. The next real chance is on the 2nd of August. Sunday morning looks promising with a 4ft NNE swell, a light offshore from the SSW, and a clean surface. The combined energy is 103, so it's a moderate pulse. It's surfable, but definitely ordinary. The 3rd of August afternoon sees a bigger 5ft NNE swell, but the cross-shore wind from the East will chop it up at 12 mph, making it messy. That one's more for the experts, as it's over 5ft.
So, your highlight is the 26th of July afternoon. The rest is a wait-and-see game. For the most part, the setup here looks more interesting for a sesh on the foil than a standard paddle.
Rusty.
