Table - best surf conditions forecast for Dunes Hotel (Miami) over the next 16 days.


Alright, let’s keep it real. Looking at the forecast, we are in for a serious dry spell. Dunes Hotel (Miami) is the only spot we’ve got data on, and it is a sheltered, inconsistent break that barely ever picks up anything solid. Over the whole 16-day window, the surf just doesn’t show up. The first day worth mentioning is Friday morning, but that’s being generous. We get a small, weak swell from the SE at about 3ft, but the wind is cross-onshore from the ESE at 12 mph, making it choppy and junk. The wave energy is a weak 42. Water temp is 87°, which is a touch warmer than usual for July.

The next couple of days are just mini leftovers: 2ft or less, still cross-onshore, short period, and poor quality. A little glassy window shows up Thursday morning, July 16th, with a tiny 1ft from the NE – it’s clean but really small. Nothing to get excited about. Then from around July 17th all the way through July 25th, we’re looking at tiny waves under 1ft, and the combined energy often drops to single digits or low twenties. There is not a single standout session in the entire forecast period. The lack of consistency here is pretty normal for this area when conditions are like this. It could be more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. For now, honestly, leave the board in the car.
