The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s be straight: the next 16 days at Delray Public Beach are looking pretty grim for surf. We’re talking a solid stretch of nearly two weeks with nothing worth paddling for. The swell is tiny, mostly 0.3ft to 0.7ft, with energy readings in the single digits or low teens – that’s about as weak as it gets. The wind is mostly cross-off or cross, which is fine, but there’s nothing to ride.
The water is a warm 86°F, which is about normal for the time of year.
The only real chance comes right at the tail end. On Monday morning, August 10th, we get a glassy, flat-calm morning with a 3ft swell from the SE. It’s short-period, weak stuff, but the conditions will be clean. The next morning, Tuesday, August 11th, shows a little more energy: 3ft from the ESE with a light cross-shore breeze. The energy reading hits 57, which is still weak but better than the rest. The afternoon of the 11th pushes 3ft but gets onshore and choppy. So, if you’re hanging on by a thread, the mornings of the 10th and 11th are your only real shots. Everything else is a flat, blown-out mess. It’s a quiet stretch, but that’s just how it goes here sometimes.
Rusty.

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 Delray Public 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.
