The Lowdown
Alright, folks. Rusty here. I’ve been staring at the charts for Mallorca and honestly, it’s a tough one. The outlook for Son Serra Nova is a bit of a heartbreaker for the next week or so. The water is a toasty 84°, which is *much warmer than normal* for this time of year – feels like a bath, but there’s no energy to play in it.
We’ve got a real dry spell. From now, right through the end of July and into the first few days of August, the swell is either flat or just offering tiny, weak dribbles. The combined energy is virtually non-existent, with values like 1 or 0. It’s mostly glassy mornings, but with no waves to ride, that’s just a pretty view. There’s a long gap of nothingness here.
Late on the 4th of August, we see a tiny blip of 1ft from the NE, but it’s weak and onshore. The first real chance of something comes on the morning of the 5th of August. There’s a 1ft swell from the NNE, with a period of 5 seconds, but the wind is onshore from the NNE. It’s poor surf conditions. The afternoon is the same story. The combined energy is a paltry 9 and 11 – weak.
The 6th of August morning offers a glimmer: a 1ft NNE swell, with glassy conditions. The energy is still weak at 8, but the glass is a major positive. It’s the best we’ve got, but it’s tiny.
Then we get a bit of a lift. On the 8th of August, the swell bumps up to 3ft from the NNE, with a period of 6 seconds. The combined energy hits 68, which is still weak but at least it’s something. But the morning is ruined by a strong 19 mph onshore wind from the NNE. That’s a mess. The afternoon has lighter winds, but it’s cross-shore.
The real standout, if you can call it that, is the morning of the 9th of August. It’s a 1ft groundswell from the NNE. The energy is a weak 9, but the wind is glassy from the ESE. That’s a clean, tiny wave. It’s the pick of the entire period, but it’s one for a longboard or a foamie, not for a proper session.
For the rest of the second week, we’re back to flat, glassy mornings and onshore afternoons. The 12th of August afternoon shows a 2ft NNE swell with a weak 18 energy, but it’s cross-shore. It’s just not on.
This is a rare break and it’s staying quiet. The whole 16-day window is a struggle. There’s no standout here; the best you can hope for is a tiny, clean wave on the 9th of August. It’s a slow period for Mallorca.
Rusty.
