Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s on offer for Delray Public Beach.
Honestly, for the first two weeks, the surf is pretty flat. We've got a long dry spell from now right through the middle of July, with next to nothing worth paddling out for. The system is showing almost zero wave energy, with weak swell all over the place.
The first real glimmer of something better shows up on Thursday the 16th of July. That morning, a 3 ft swell from the ESE with a short 5-second period creeps in, and the combined energy hits 50 (weak), but the wind is onshore. It’s a very small step up.
Now, the standout window in this whole 16-day run is Friday the 17th of July. By the morning, we see the combined swell energy jump to 163 (moderate), with 5 ft from the E and a 6-second period. By the afternoon, it builds to 5 ft from the east, energy hitting 197 (moderate). The swell direction is from the east, which is just off the optimum direction for this beach, and the period is short so it’s gonna be a bit jumbly. The winds are onshore from the ESE at 12 mph, so it's going to be pretty choppy. It probably won’t be super clean, but it will be the biggest push of swell in the whole forecast. At 5 ft to 5 ft, it’s right at the upper limit for beginners and will feel a bit more serious. Expect it to be bumpy.
After that little pulse, the surf drops off pretty quick again, with small leftovers on the 18th and 19th but nothing special. All in all, if you’re desperate, the 17th is your best bet, but don't expect perfection.
