Alright, let me be straight with you. Looking at the whole 16-day run for Dania South Beach, it’s a tough stretch. There are no good surf options in this window. The wave energy is weak across the board – we’re talking combined swell energy values hanging mostly between single digits and low 50s, which is barely a ripple. It’s a flat spell, plain and simple. For this area, a blank run like this isn’t unheard of, it can happen. The good news is that forecasts can shift, so don’t write it off forever.
Starting Tuesday morning, July 7th, through the weekend, we’ve got tiny waves – 0.7 ft to 3 ft – coming out of the east and southeast. The period is short, mostly 4 to 6 seconds, so there’s no push. Winds are cross-onshore or onshore most of the time, keeping the surface choppy and bumpy. It’s “poor surf conditions” all the way.
Wednesday the 8th and Thursday the 9th see a slight bump to 2 ft and 2 ft, but the wind is still a problem, making it messy. Friday the 10th and Saturday the 11th are similar – small, choppy, and not worth the paddle out.
Sunday morning the 12th gets glassy with a light easterly wind at 3 mph, but the swell is only 1.0 ft with a 5-second period. It’s clean but there’s no wave to ride. That afternoon, the wind picks back up.
The second week, from Monday the 13th through Wednesday the 22nd, we’re stuck in the same rut. Swell stays at 0.7 ft for days on end, with an 8-second period, which is at least a little more organised but far too small. There are a few clean moments – like Monday morning the 13th, Tuesday the 14th, and Sunday the 19th – with light offshore or cross-offshore breezes, but again, no swell to work with. The combined energy is often in the single digits.
Bottom line: there’s nothing to get excited about here. The water temperature anomaly isn’t provided for this first mention, so I can’t tell you if it’s warmer or cooler than usual, but it doesn’t matter much when there’s no surf.
