The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for the next couple of weeks.
First off, I gotta be straight with you: this is a grim stretch. There’s not a single decent wave on the cards for the entire 16-day window. The only spot in the frame is Dania South Beach, and it’s just not doing anything. We’re looking at a blank run from now all the way through to the 22nd of August. That’s a long, flat, sad gap.
The water at Dania South Beach is sittin’ at 86°, which is pretty normal for this time of year – no weird anomalies to talk about.
The swell is tiny, barely a knee-high ripple. The best we see is a measly 3 ft on Sunday the 9th morning, but that’s a 4-second windswell with a piddly combined energy of 38 – weak, weak, weak. The wind is a constant cross-onshore or onshore breeze, mostly from the SE or ESE, blowing at 9 to 16 mph. It’s always choppy, always messy. Every single day is marked as “poor surf conditions.” The wave periods are mostly short, 4 to 8 seconds, which is just useless.
There’s no standout, no highlight, nothing to get excited about. This may be a good time to check the forecast for a different region, because it’s gonna be a long wait for anything rideable around here.

Information about the Dania South Beach Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Dania South Beach provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Dania South Beach can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Dania South Beach 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 (Dania South Beach) 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 Dania South Beach 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.
