The Lowdown

Alright, listen up. Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you, this is a tough one. We’re looking at the next 16 days out of Dania South Beach, and honestly, it’s a flat spell, plain and simple. There’s nothing on the cards that’s going to get you out of bed. We’ve got a long stretch starting now with no real surf to speak of.

The water temp is sitting at 86°, which is a touch warmer than average for this time of year, so it’s a bath, but that’s the only good news.

Let’s run through the whole period. From Tuesday the 21st of July right through to the end of the month, it’s a total write-off. We’re looking at tiny, weak swell. The wave energy is pathetic, barely hitting 21 (weak energy) on the 21st, and it doesn't get much better. The swell height is a miserable 2 ft or less, coming from the SE or E, with periods so short (4-5 seconds) you might as well be bobbing on a lake. The wind is a problem too, mostly cross-onshore from the SE or SSE at 9-12 mph, making it choppy and messy. The waves are declared "poor surf conditions" for every single session. Even the "clean" days on the 26th and 27th are on tiny 0.7 ft swell – not enough to push a log.

We roll into the first week of August, and it’s the same story. The 1st and 2nd are still flat with weak 0.7 ft to 1 ft swell. The only slight pulse comes on the 3rd of August, Monday, with a tiny bump to 2 ft swell from the SSE, but the period is still a short 4 seconds, and the wind is onshore, making it choppy and ugly. The combined energy finally climbs to 45 (still weak) on the Monday afternoon, but it’s not enough to call it a session.

The best conditions you’ll see are on the morning of the 4th of August, Tuesday, when the wind goes glassy from the E at 3 mph, but it’s on a tiny 0.7 ft swell. That’s just a lake with a nice surface. The energy is only 9 (weak). Nothing to ride.

Because this is a beach and reef setup that’s inconsistent, this kind of blank run is more normal for the area. It’s a real bummer, but forecasts can change. For now, keep the board in the car and the wax in the bag. There are no standouts, no highlights, just a waiting game.

Rusty.

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.
