The Lowdown
G'day, Rusty here, and I've gotta be straight with you – the outlook for Flagler Avenue over the next 16 days is a tough one. It's a real quiet stretch, and I'm not seeing a single session that I'd paddle out for. The whole window is basically a write-off for decent surf.
The water temperature is sitting at 84°, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year, so you won't need a thicker wetsuit, but you will need a whole lot of patience.
We're looking at a long, dry gap here. From now through to the end of the forecast period, there's just nothing on offer. The swell is tiny, barely a ripple, with heights struggling to hit 3 ft and the combined energy of all swells is pitiful – you're looking at values like 21 (21) or 37 (37) – that's barely a whisper of energy. The direction is coming from the east and southeast, which is all wrong for the spot, and the periods are short, mostly 7 to 8 seconds, so there's no real push or shape to it.
Even when the wind goes glassy, like on Tuesday the 4th of August morning or Wednesday the 5th of August morning, there's just no swell to make use of it. You'd be sitting on a flat, glassy ocean. It's a shame, but that's how it plays out sometimes.
For a break that's very consistent, a blank run like this is a bit unusual, but it happens. It's likely more interesting for the kite surfers than anyone with a paddle board. Keep your eyes on the forecasts, because things can change.
Stay tuned, Rusty.

A general guide to surfing at Flagler Avenue can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.
