The Lowdown
Hey, Rusty here. Let’s call it like it is: Dunes Hotel (Miami) has zero surf on the horizon for the next 16 days. The finder shows nothing but flat, choppy junk from now through July 29th. The break is inconsistent and sheltered, and the swell just isn’t happening. The biggest wave we see is 0.7m on the 24th and 29th, but with a period of 4 seconds and cross-onshore winds at 12–15 mph, it’s not surfable. The combined energy is weak – never above 24 (weak). No clean days, no standouts. If you’re into kiting, the moderate cross-onshore chop might be fun, but for a paddle surfer, it’s a total dud. Water temp is about normal for July. This kind of blank run is more common here, but forecasts can change. Right now, though, there’s nothing to get excited about.
