The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for the next couple of weeks.

Honestly, it’s a tough stretch for Delray Public Beach. The swell is tiny and the wind is a mess. The pattern is just a long run of small, weak, choppy conditions. We’re talking a full week of barely any surf. The models show the combined energy of all swells sitting at a measly 11 to 46 for the first few days. It’s a real flat spell.

The first real pulse of energy shows up on the 7th of August, Friday afternoon. The swell bumps up to 5 ft from the East, with a period of 6 seconds. That’s enough to get the board wet, but the easterly wind is cross-onshore at 12 mph, making it pretty choppy. The combined energy hits 215 later that day, but it’s not clean. The water is about average for this time of year.

The options stay slim. Saturday the 8th sees the swell drop back down, and we’re back to tiny, poor surf. The wind doesn’t give us a break. The best chance we get is on the 17th of August, Monday afternoon. The swell is a modest 3 ft from the southeast, but for the first time we get a light cross-offshore breeze from the WSW at 3 mph. That’s the cleanest it’s going to get. The combined energy is 67, and the report says "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions". It’s not a standout, but it’s the only window that’s not blown out.

So, no true standouts here. It’s a waiting game. Keep an eye on the long-range forecasts, but for now, the board stays in the car.

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.
