The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a good, honest look at Flagler Avenue. We’ve got a full 16-day window stretching from Saturday the 25th of July through to Sunday the 9th of August, and I’m gonna be straight with you – this stretch is a tough one. There’s a solid gap of no real surf on offer for the entire forecast period. Every single slot in the data comes back with “poor surf conditions” and a score that’s a flat zero. That’s a long, quiet run.
The combined energy of all swells directed here is weak, barely cracking double digits for most of it, with the highest reading hitting just 92 (weak energy) on the afternoon of Friday the 7th of August. The swell heights are tiny, lingering between 0.7 ft and 3 ft, all from the east or east-southeast, with a short period of 7 to 10 seconds – that’s windswell, not groundswell. No real punch, no real push.
Because there are no standout options, I can’t point you to a best session. The wind does offer some clean windows – there are mornings with glassy conditions and gentle offshore breezes from the west or southwest, like on Tuesday the 28th of July morning or Wednesday the 29th of July morning. But even with clean, glassy water, the waves just aren’t there. The water temperature isn’t given a specific number, so I can’t tell you if it’s warmer or colder than usual, but with no surf, it doesn’t change the story.
Flagler Avenue is a beach and jetty setup, very consistent in its inconsistency for quality surf. It’s exposed to the swell, and the optimum swell direction is from the north-northeast, but we’re getting nothing but east and east-southeast. For the whole 16 days, the swell is too small for anyone, beginner or expert. Honestly, with the tiny waves and the occasional cross-shore chop, this setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer, but even then, the wind isn’t strong enough to be reliable.
To sum it up: there’s no surf to speak of from now right through to the 9th of August. Blank runs like this happen in this area, and it’s a normal part of the pattern. Forecasts can change, but for now, the board stays in the car.
Rusty.
