The Lowdown

Alright, grab a coffee, let’s talk about the next couple of weeks here at Dania South Beach (beach and reef). To be straight with you mate, it’s looking pretty quiet out there for a while. This spot is known for being inconsistent at the best of times, and that’s exactly what we’ve got coming up.

Right from Tuesday the 1st, we’re looking at tiny, weak energy with a combined swell energy of just 22 and poor conditions. That sets the tone for a long, flat run. From the very start, we’ve got a solid stretch of days with almost nothing doing. For the most part, we’re looking at a massive gap of nearly two weeks where the swell is small, the wind is leaning onshore or cross-onshore, and the water is basically flat or just messy. It’s going to be a hard slog for paddle surfing.

There is a glimmer, but it comes way down the line. On the afternoon of Wednesday the 16th, we finally see a bit of a pulse, with a 4ft swell sneaking in from the NNE. The combined energy jumps to a moderate 178, which is the only real event in the whole window. It’s a short period swell at 8 seconds, and the wind is a moderate cross-onshore, so it’s going to be choppy. Because of the size and those tricky winds, this is honestly looking more like a kite-surfing afternoon than a clean paddle session. Sorry, but that’s the reality.

The water temp is sitting at a very warm 87°, which is about average for this time of year – the anomaly is only 0.9°F, so nothing weird there.

To put it simply: this is a blank run, and it’s a pretty normal thing for the area when the consistency is this low. Don’t hold your breath. Forecasts can change, but right now, put the board away and grab a cold one.

Rusty.
