Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about what we’ve got coming up for Delray Public Beach.
Honestly, looking at the whole 16-day run, it’s a pretty flat and quiet stretch. This isn’t a period for chasing waves; it’s more of a longboarding or even a swimming kind of vibe. There’s a big gap of nothing special to start.
The first couple of days are a write-off. Friday the 3rd and Saturday the 4th of July are tiny with messy, poor surf conditions. You’re looking at weak, rippled-out mush.
Things stay pretty small and uninspiring through the first week. Mostly cross-onshore winds keep the surface choppy. The swell energy is really low, with readings in the teens and twenties (12 to 48, basically flat). There’s nothing that’s going to get your heart racing.
Then, around the 11th and 12th of July, we get a little window of nice conditions. The wind goes glassy or very light offshore out of the SSW, and the morning surfaces will be clean. But the swell is still tiny at 1 ft and the period is short. It’ll be a mirror-like ocean but with barely a bump. It’s a beautiful morning for a paddle, not really a surf.
Towards the end of the forecast, around the 17th and 18th of July, the swell tries to push up a tiny bit to about 3 ft, but the period is still junk at 5 seconds, and the wind is mostly onshore. The combined energy gets a little more interesting, hitting 63 to 67, which is still weak to moderate at best, but the onshore wind will just chop it up.
There’s no standout session here. The best you could hope for is a grovelly, glassy morning on the 11th or 12th if you’re desperate for a slide. For the rest of it, it’s a hard pass.
Stay patient.

Information about the Delray Public Beach Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Delray Public Beach provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Delray Public Beach can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Delray Public Beach surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period.

Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. 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. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
