The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here with the skinny on Dania South Beach. I gotta be straight with you: the next week and change is a total dud. We’re staring at tiny, gutless surf for about nine days straight. Most of it is less than 3 feet, with short, choppy periods and the wind either blowing cross-on or just straight onshore. The wave energy is in the gutter – barely a whisper. If you’re hanging onto hope for a wave, you’re gonna be waiting.
The first real glimmer comes on Wednesday the 23rd of September. The wind finally clocks offshore out of the WSW, and we see a bump up to 4 feet from the NNE. The energy jumps to a solid moderate number, and the reports say it’s clean. That direction is a decent match for the break, but the scores say it’s marginal. For a beginner, 4 feet can be a handful depending on the tide.
But the one you need to mark your calendar for is Thursday the 24th of September. Thursday morning is it. The swell kicks up to 8 feet from the SE. The period is short, but the energy is strong. More importantly, the wind is glassy – almost nothing out of the SSE. That’s a massive plus for this usually inconsistent break. The water is sitting at 87°F, which is a touch warmer than average, so it’ll feel good.
Just a big warning: by Friday the 25th, they’re calling for a massive 15-foot swell from the SSE. That’s a powerful system, and the wave energy is through the roof, but it’s too big for this spot, pure and simple. That’s expert-only territory, and the wind will be onshore in the afternoon. So Thursday morning is your best – and safest – shot.
Stay sharp.
Rusty.
