Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about Flagler Avenue.
Honestly, mate, it's a rough stretch for the next couple of weeks. For most of this period, we're looking at tiny swell and not much to get excited about. The surf is basically flat, with wave heights barely scraping 2 feet at best for days on end. The swell energy is weak, often sitting in the double digits (under 100 for most of it), which tells you how limp it is. The wind is mostly okay—there are some glassy mornings and clean windows—but without any real swell, it’s just a paddle. This break is very consistent, but it doesn't mean much when the consistency is for waves not worth paddling for. The water is a warm 84°, which is pretty normal for this time of year.
From the 11th of July right through to the 22nd, the forecast is basically a flat spell. We get a sniff of something on the 23rd of July, which is over a week away. The morning of the 23rd sees a small bump—2 foot swell from the ESE with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy climbs a bit (51), and we’ve got light offshore wind from the SW. It’s surfable, but it's ordinary. The afternoon of the 23rd is the only real standout in the whole 16-day outlook. The swell nudges up to 3 feet from the ESE, and the energy jumps to 122, which is moderate. The wind goes glassy light from the SW. Clean, small, and rideable. It’s not a day to call in sick for, but it’s the best we’ve got. That tiny window continues into the morning of the 24th with similar 2 foot waves and gentle offshore wind, but nothing else lifts above that.
After that, we’re back into the doldrums. The morning of the 26th of July has some glassy 2 foot surf (51 energy), which is okay, but the wind turns onshore in the afternoon and kills it.
In short: the whole window is pretty flat. If you’re desperate, the 23rd of July afternoon is your target—clean, knee-to-waist high, but don't expect much.
