The Lowdown

Alright, surfers, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what we’ve got coming up for Dania South Beach. I gotta be straight with you—this one’s a tough stretch. The next 16 days are looking pretty flat and quiet, with no real surf to speak of. We’re going to see a long gap with no worthwhile waves, so don’t get your hopes up for anything more than a knee-high dribble, if that. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing wild there.

Right from the get-go, starting Sunday the 26th of July, it’s all poor surf conditions. We’ve got a tiny 1 ft east swell with a short period of 8 seconds and combined wave energy of just 14 (weak). The wind is light and cross-offshore in the morning, which would keep it clean, but there’s just no push. The waves are too small to even bother with. This flat, inconsistent pattern just drags on day after day. The swell never gets above 2 ft, and when it does, the period is a miserable 3-4 seconds, meaning it’s just wind slop. The energy stays in the low double digits—anything from 5 to 32 (weak to weak-moderate), which is nothing to write home about.

The only real highlight—if you can call it that—is on Thursday the 30th of July. The afternoon shows a little bump: 2 ft from the south, with a 4-second period (weak energy at 20). The wind is offshore, so the surface will be clean. But that’s a tiny, crumbly wave for a beach-and-reef setup, and it’s inconsistent, so you’ll be waiting a long time between sets. It’s really only a beginner-level wave anyway, and even then, it’s a stretch. There’s just nothing else. For the rest of the run, the wind is mostly cross-shore or onshore, and the swell direction is from the east and southeast—not ideal for this spot, which prefers an east swell.

Honestly, the whole 16-day window is a write-off for a proper surf. The swell is too small, the periods are too short, and the consistency is poor. With the combined energy so low, it’s more of a paddle-around-and-look-at-the-sky kind of week. For a spot that’s already inconsistent, this blank run is pretty normal for the area. I wouldn’t bother checking the forecasts too often—things can change, but right now, there’s nothing to get excited about.

Rusty.
