The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's cookin' for Dania South Beach over the next couple weeks. Gotta be straight with you – it's a tough stretch ahead. The pattern just isn't lining up for us.
This is a beach and reef setup, and for the most part, the swell is tiny and the wind is all kinds of wrong. The combined swell energy stays weak, barely breaking into double digits at times, and most readings hover between a tiny 7 and 54 (combined energy of all swells directed here). There are no good surf options in the entire 16-day window. It’s a blank run, plain and simple. For this area, that’s not too unusual when the fetch just ain't pointing our way.
The first few days, from Sunday the 9th through to at least the end of the week, are a write-off. Tiny windswell in the 1 ft to 3 ft range, nearly all of it cross-onshore or onshore from the ESE or SE, making for choppy, poor surf conditions.
We do get a little calm moment on Thursday the 13th, with a completely glassy morning. But the swell is a pathetic 0.3 ft from the NE with a combined energy of only 7. You'd be floating on a lake, not surfing.
Heading into the second week, the swell stays disgustingly small. There’s a brief flicker of hope on Monday the 24th with a bit more push – 3 ft swell from the NE, with a period of only 6 seconds and energy hitting 50. It’s still a poor, short-period wave and cross-shore to cross-onshore winds will mess it up. Nothing to get excited about.
Honestly, this setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer if the wind stays up, because for a paddle surfer it's just not happening. Forecasts can change, but for now, save your wax.
Rusty.
