The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this is a tough one. We’ve got a 16-day window, and honestly, there’s not a single day where I’d wax up my board and paddle out with any real hope. The finder is totally empty of recommendations, so we’re looking at a blank run from July 22nd all the way through August 6th.
The only spot in the guidance is Dania South Beach, a beach and reef setup that’s fairly exposed to the east but is inconsistent. For the entire period, the swell is tiny – we’re talking 0.7 ft to 2 ft at best, with periods mostly 4 to 8 seconds. That’s short-period, weak chop, not surf. The combined energy never gets above 28 (weak energy), so don’t get your hopes up.
The wind is a mess. Most days it’s cross-onshore from the east or southeast, blowing 9 to 16 mph, making it choppy and bumpy. There are a few clean moments, like the morning of July 26th with a light cross-offshore breeze from the SSW, but the swell is a pathetic 1 ft with an 8-second period. It’s glassy, but there’s nothing to ride.
Water temperature at the start is 86°F, which is 1°F warmer than usual for this time of year – about average really, just a touch warm. Nothing to write home about.
If you’re a kite surfer, the afternoon of July 23rd sees 16 mph onshore wind and 2 ft of choppy junk – that might be your jam. But for paddle surfing? Leave the board at home.
This sort of dead spell is more normal for the area in summer, but forecasts can change. Right now, it’s a flat, blown-out bust. Stay tuned, but don’t hold your breath.

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.
