The Lowdown
Alright folks, I’ve been staring at the charts for Dania South Beach, and it’s a long, flat spell we’re looking at. Don’t get too excited, because there’s a big gap of days with nothing to ride. For the next week and a half, it’s a bust.
The water’s sitting at a balmy 87°F, which is about a degree and a half warmer than usual, so it’s like bath water.
From September 3rd all the way to the 12th, it’s pretty poor. We’re talking tiny swells, mostly under 2ft, with a nasty cross to onshore breeze from the south and southeast. There’s a brief window on the morning of September 7th with glassy conditions from the northwest, but the swell is a measly 0.7ft, so you’d be floating around with nothing to ride. The energy readings are in the single digits and low teens – just weak, wind-affected slop.
Things don’t really change until September 13th. That Sunday afternoon, we finally see a bit of a pulse with a 3ft swell from the southeast, but it’s short period at 5 seconds, and the wind is a solid onshore 12 mph from the east. The combined energy (49) is still low, and it’s going to be a messy, choppy crumble. Not a standout.
Honestly, the best of a bad lot might be the morning of September 17th. We get a 2ft swell from the northeast with a 7-second period, and the energy reading (68) is the highest we’ve seen all forecast. The wind is still onshore from the east at 9 mph, so it won’t be clean, but it’s about as good as it gets. For a break that’s inconsistent and a beginner-friendly beach and reef, it’s just not offering much.
If you’re really keen, keep an eye on that September 17th, but don’t plan a trip around it. It’s one of those times where the forecast can turn, so stay hopeful.
