Alright, let’s get into it. I’m lookin’ at Delray Public Beach, and I gotta be straight with you – the next 16 days are pretty much a bust for surf. There’s nothing worth paddlin’ out for. The water temp’s sittin’ around 86°, which is about normal for this time of year – no real anomaly to speak of. This spot’s usually fairly consistent, but right now the whole window is filled with onshore wind, small weak swell, and mostly “poor surf” flagged every single session.

Starting off Monday July 6, it’s a risk of thunderstorms with a 2ft SE windswell at a short 4 seconds – that’s just bumpy junk. Combined energy is only 14 – weak. Tuesday morning the 7th is even smaller at 0.7ft, with cross-onshore breeze. That pattern holds all week: swell stays under 3ft, period rarely climbs past 6 seconds, and the wind keeps blowin’ onshore or cross-onshore from SE, SSE, or ESE. Afternoon thunderstorms pop up a few times too. Saturday July 11 sees a little bump to 3ft, but it’s still cross-onshore and chopped. Combined energy tops out at 83 on Friday July 10 afternoon – still weak.

The only chance for cleaner conditions comes Monday July 13 morning, when we get a brief offshore from the NW – light breeze, clean lookin’ – but the swell is only 0.7ft at 8 seconds. That’s barely a ripple, and combined energy is 12. Not worth the drive.

From there it’s more of the same: small, onshore, poor. A little NNE swell tries to show up Thursday July 16 with 2ft and 9-second period, but it’s got that onshore wind again. Combined energy nudges 76, still weak. The rest of the second week stays tiny and messy, with cross-onshore winds and swell under 3ft. By Monday July 20, there’s a little 3ft ESE swell with some cross-shore breeze, but combined energy is only 51 and conditions are still “poor surf.”

So bottom line: no standouts, no good windows. This stretch is flat and blown out. For a beginner-friendly spot like Delray, there’s just nothin’ to ride. Hang tight – forecasts can always change, but right now I’d say take a break.

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. If you surf the same spot (Delray Public Beach) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. 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.

Delray Public Beach is 2 km (1 miles) from the city of Delray Beach. If you plan a vacation in South Florida, look for hotels and other accommodation in Delray Beach. Delray Beach has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
