The Lowdown

Alright, surfers, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you: the next 16 days at Delray Public Beach are a full-on flat spell. There's not a single decent wave on offer—scores are all zeroes, and every single row is marked "poor surf conditions." We're looking at a real dry spell from Sunday, August 2nd, all the way through to Monday, August 17th. That's a solid two-week-plus gap with nothing to get excited about. The consistent onshore winds (mostly from the ESE and SE, 9-16 mph) really mess things up, keeping the sea messy and lumpy. The odd bit of glass on Sunday afternoon doesn't help because the swell is minuscule.
The best of a bad bunch shows up on Friday, August 7th, with a swell from the east at 4ft and a period of 6 seconds. The combined energy creeps up to (105) in the morning, which is weak to moderate, but it's still a short-period wind swell with a moderate cross-onshore breeze at 16 mph. It's a choppy, messy affair. Even on Saturday, August 8th, the swell drops to 2ft, but the energy is (132) and the wind is gentler, but it's still cross-onshore and fairly choppy. Nothing here is worth paddling out for, especially for a beginner-friendly break like this. If you're a kite surfer, the constant onshore breeze and choppy water might look interesting, but for a paddle surfer, this is a total washout. The water temp is sitting at 86°, which is about normal for this time of year, so at least you'll be warm while you're sitting on the beach.
In short, there's no surf to chase. Keep your fins waxed, check back later, and hope the forecasts change. This is a typical blank run for this area, and it tends not to stay this poor for long.
