The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight – if you’re looking for a wave at Delray Public Beach over the next 16 days, you’re going to be disappointed. The whole window from Sunday July 19 through Monday August 3 is a flat spell. Every single session is labelled poor, scores are zeros, and there’s just no energy to work with. Swell heights barely nudge above 3 ft, and most days it’s even smaller – down to 0.5 ft with short periods around 4–8 seconds. Wind is mostly cross-on or onshore, so even the tiny bumps are chopped up. That said, Delray is a fairly consistent spot normally, so this kind of blank run isn’t the norm. The water’s warm – about 86°F, which is roughly 2°F above average for this time of year – but that’s the only nice thing. If you’re a beginner hoping to learn, there’s nothing to practice on. For the rare day where a little bump appears (like Sunday July 26 morning with a light offshore wind from the WSW), the wave height is only 0.5 ft – not enough to ride. Honestly, kites and foil boards might get something out of the light breeze, but for paddle surfing? Save the wax. Hang tight – it usually doesn’t stay this quiet for long. Rusty.

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.
