The Lowdown

Alright, this is Rusty for Flagler Avenue. Gotta be straight with you – this 16-day outlook is a slow one. The first week is mostly flat and choppy, with tiny, weak waves and onshore winds tearing up the surface. The combined swell energy never really gets going, staying under 100 for almost the whole run.

The only glimmers of hope come at the tail end of the forecast. On the morning of Thursday, September 10th, we get a brief chance at fun. The swell will only be about 2ft from the NE, but the wind goes glassy. That’s the big win here. After all the wind, clean, smooth conditions will make the most of that small, 11-second period energy. The combined energy is still low, reading 99. The next morning, Friday, September 11th, looks even better, with zero wind and glassy conditions again. The swell is similar, 2ft from the NE with a 10-second period, offering another clean, small-wave session. The water’s a warm 83°, dead on average for the time of year.

For the rest of the period, honestly, leave the board in the car. A long stretch of poor conditions leads to these two brief windows. Keep an eye out, because a blank run like this doesn’t last forever.

Signing off, Rusty.

Information about the Flagler Avenue Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Flagler Avenue provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Flagler Avenue can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Flagler Avenue 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 (Flagler Avenue) 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 Flagler Avenue 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.
