Table - best surf conditions forecast for Dania South Beach over the next 16 days.
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s look at what’s on offer.
Honestly, mate, it’s a pretty grim stretch ahead. The whole 16-day window is a flat spell with no real surf to get excited about. We’re looking at a run of poor surf conditions from start to finish, with nothing that’s worth paddling out for. The combined swell energy barely cracks 48 (48) at its best, and that’s weak. Most days it’s hanging around in the teens or low twenties – that’s barely a ripple.
The only spot we’ve got to look at is Dania South Beach (Dania-South-Beach). It’s a beach and reef setup, inconsistent, and mainly for beginners. The swell direction is mostly out of the SE or E, and the optimum swell here is from the E, so at least the direction isn’t totally off, but the size is tiny. We’re looking at waves around 0.7 ft to 3 ft all through, with short periods of 4 to 8 seconds – that’s just wind slop, not real groundswell.
The wind is a killer. Most of the time it’s a moderate cross-onshore breeze around 12 mph, making it choppy and messy. There’s one morning on Thursday, July 16, where the wind goes light offshore from the WNW at 3 mph, and the water cleans up. But even then, the swell is only 2 ft with a period of 7 seconds – it’s rideable for a learner on a foamie, but nothing to write home about. The water temperature this time of year is about average, so no weird thermals to worry about.
Crowds are listed as “sometimes” at Dania South Beach, so you might have a few others out, but with surf this small, it’s not going to be packed.
The bottom line: there’s no standout day. The best you can hope for is that Thursday, July 16 morning, with a clean surface and a tiny knee-high wave. If you’re desperate, you could get a few, but it’s not worth the drive. The rest of the outlook is a whole lot of nothing. This kind of flat run is pretty normal for the area, so don’t hold your breath.
Rusty.
