Alright, Rusty here. Let's size up the situation.
Right off the bat, you gotta know it's flat out there. We're staring down a long, quiet stretch. For the next couple of weeks, don't expect much. The first real chance for a wave doesn't even show up until Friday the 10th, and even then it's a tiny 3ft SE swell. The wind will be onshore and choppy, so it's not going to be a pretty picture. We're looking at a gap of a few days with nothing worth paddling out for.
Let's talk about the only spot on the menu: Delray Public Beach. It's a beginner-friendly beach break, and it's fairly consistent, but the problem is that what's coming is barely a ripple. The water is sitting at a warm 86°, which is about a degree and a half warmer than normal for the time of year, so at least it’ll feel nice to sit in, but that’s about all the excitement we’ll get.
We don't get any waves worth a mention until the end of the first week. It's a real bummer, honestly. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, messing up any chance of a clean face. The combined swell energy barely gets into double digits (11-52 range), so it's weak, weak, weak.
If you’re an absolute beginner just looking to get wet and practice your pop-up on a foamie, there might be a tiny window, but for anyone wanting a proper ride, this is a no-go. Honestly, with the onshore winds and weak swell, the setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
So that's the call. A long wait for very little. We’ll keep an eye on it, but don't hold your breath.

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.

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.
