The Lowdown
Hey, Rusty here again. Let's call it like it is for Dania South Beach. We're looking at a 16-day stretch where the surf is pretty much a no-go. The first little bump of nothing happens on Saturday the 5th, but you really shouldn't bother.
The whole outlook is basically "poor surf conditions" from now until the 20th of September. The numbers back it up. The biggest energy we see all period is about 71 on Wednesday the 9th, but that's still a weak reading. We're talking about a swell of around 2ft from the NNE with a short 8-second period, and the wind is blowing onshore. That's just messy, weak surf with no power.
After that, it's a long, flat grind of tiny 0.7ft to 2ft waves, short periods, and a whole lot of onshore and cross-onshore wind. Sure, we get a couple of glassy mornings on the 6th and 7th, but with a swell that's only 1ft and an energy reading of just 3 to 8, the ocean is dead flat. There's nothing to push you down the line.
There's not one standout day or break here. The water temp anomaly isn't even given, so we can't tell you what it's doing compared to normal.
Honestly, for this spot, don't even bring your surfboard. If you're into kitesurfing, those onshore breezes later on might be your only play. Otherwise, this is a classic flat spell for our area. Just sit this one out.
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 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.
