The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Beacon Point over the next couple of weeks.
Well, I gotta be straight with you – it’s a tough stretch ahead. The whole 16-day window is looking like a write-off for any proper surf. We’re looking at a long, dry spell with nothing to get excited about. There’s no swell to speak of, and even when the odd ripple shows up, the conditions just aren't playing ball. It’s a proper gap with zero recommendations from start to finish.
The water is sitting at 80.8°, which is a bit colder than we’d expect for this time of year. Not a massive shock, but worth noting if you’re planning a paddle.
The only time things get close to being interesting is on the morning of Tuesday the 8th of September. We’ve got a tiny 2ft swell rolling in from the NE, and the wind goes glassy – dead calm. That would make for a clean surface, but the waves are described as “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions”. It’s a long-period groundswell at 6 seconds, so not much push, and the combined energy is a weak 48. It’s not really worth chasing.
The rest of the period is a mix of poor surf, choppy onshores, and tiny dribbles. We see a bit of clean, glassy conditions again on the morning of Thursday the 10th, and again on Friday morning the 11th, but the swell is a pathetic 1ft. There’s just no energy in the water to work with.
Forget about it. This is a blank run for Beacon Point. Don’t bother waxing up your board for this one.

Information about the Beacon Point Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Beacon Point provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Beacon Point can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Beacon Point surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Beacon Point) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Beacon Point may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
Beacon Point is 30 km (19 miles) from Palm Valley. If you plan a vacation in North Florida, look for hotels and other accommodation in Palm Valley. Palm Valley has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
