The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: the next 16 days are a flat spell for Dania South Beach. There’s no surf worth paddling out for, so I’m just going to give you the full picture so you know what we’re dealing with.
Right from Sunday the 19th of July, we’ve got a tiny 2ft swell from the SE with a short, weak period of 4 seconds. The combined energy is a measly 27 (weak energy), and the wind is a cross-onshore breeze at 12 mph making it choppy and messy. That’s a big fat zero for wave quality. The water temperature is about average for this time of year, nothing wild.
This pattern just keeps rolling through the week. Monday and Tuesday are the same story – 2ft to 3ft of weak, short-period swell, cross-onshore or cross winds, and the combined energy never gets above 41 (weak energy). It’s all “poor surf conditions” across the board. By Wednesday the 22nd, it’s still cross-onshore and the swell is barely a ripple.
We hit a bit of a lull from Thursday the 23rd through the end of the month. The swell drops to 0.7ft or 1ft, and while we get a few clean mornings with light offshore or cross-off winds on the 26th, 27th, 28th, and 29th of July, the wave height is just too small to ride. The combined energy is in the single digits or low teens – weak energy. You’d be sitting on a flat board.
The first week of August doesn’t offer any hope either. From the 1st to the 3rd, it’s the same situation: tiny 0.3ft to 1ft swell, weak energy, and mostly cross or cross-onshore winds. The only bright spot is a few clean windows, but again, no wave to push you.
Look, this break is inconsistent, and this is one of those blank runs that’s more normal for the area. There’s nothing surfable on the horizon. If you’re desperate, maybe a longboard and a prayer, but honestly, I’d save the energy. Forecasts can change, but right now, we’re in a drought.
Rusty.

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.

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.
