Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's be straight-up with you about Dania South Beach – it’s a tough stretch ahead.
Honestly, looking at the whole 16-day window, there isn’t a single day I’d get excited about paddling out. We’ve got a solid block of poor surf conditions right through from Monday July 6th all the way to Tuesday July 21st. That’s a long, flat, and choppy run.
The main problem is that the swell is tiny, maxing out at a pathetic 3 ft, but that’s only for a couple of hours on Friday afternoon July 10th. Most days, we’re looking at knee-slappers of 0.7 ft to 1 ft. The period is short too, mostly 4 to 5 seconds, which means no push and no shape – just lumpy, wind-affected slop. The combined energy is weak, rarely climbing above 67 (moderate wave energy at best, often under 50), so don’t expect any grunt.
The wind is the other killer. There’s a relentless cross-onshore breeze from the SSE and SE, blowing 9 to 16 mph. This will keep the surface chopped up and messy. There is one highlight – Monday morning, July 13th. We get a brief window of glassy conditions with a light WNW breeze, but the swell is still a paltry 0.7 ft. It’ll look pretty but be virtually unsurfable. Then on Tuesday morning July 14th, we get some offshore wind from the WSW at 6 mph, but again, on 0.7 ft of 8-second east swell, it’s not going to break.
The water temp is around average for this time of year, so no thermals needed at least.
Because it’s a beach and reef setup, with this much onshore wind and tiny swell, it’s honestly looking more suited for a kite than a surfboard.
I hate to say it, but there’s nothing here to recommend. Keep the board in the car, or better yet, take a week off. The forecast can always shift, but right now, it’s a flat spell.
