The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let me be straight with you about Dania South Beach for the next couple of weeks. The outlook is pretty flat, to be honest. We’ve got a long stretch of small, weak surf and mostly wonky wind. It’s a tough run.
The first solid recommendation doesn’t roll in until Wednesday, September 9th. That morning, we’re looking at a pulse of 3ft east-northeast swell creeping in, with a period around 8 seconds. The combined energy is moderate (119), so there’s a bit of push behind it, but nothing to write home about. Unfortunately, the wind is a light cross-onshore, which will keep the surface a little bumpy. Still, it’s the best we’ve got for a while.
The standout of the whole period, honestly, is a bit of a weird one. Tuesday morning, September 8th, offers a tiny 1ft north-northeast pulse with glassy conditions. Yes, glassy. The wind is dead calm, and the surface will be like a mirror. The swell is weak (combined energy of just 21), but if you have a longboard, that morning could be a real treat—cleanest waves you’ll see all forecast.
Otherwise, Thursday the 10th and Friday the 11th have small east-northeast swells (2ft and 1ft) with light cross-offshore winds on the Friday morning, which will clean things up. But the size is tiny. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
Crowds are possible at Dania South Beach, and with surf this small, every little bump will be fought over. The bottom is a mix of beach and reef, so watch your feet on the low tide.
Honestly, if you are desperate, the glassy Tuesday morning is your best bet. After that, the 9th has a touch more size but bumpier conditions. The rest of the fortnight is pretty much a write-off with onshore wind and tiny waves.
Rusty.
