Updates in hr min s Forecast update imminent
Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you on this one for Flagler Avenue. It’s an exposed beach and jetty setup, and over the next sixteen days, it’s looking like a real bust for surfers. The overall pattern is flat to tiny, with very weak energy. We’ve got a solid gap of nearly a week of poor conditions right from the start.
From Saturday July 4th right through to Thursday July 10th morning, it’s a write-off. Swell heights are sitting at 0.3m to 0.6m (that’s 1 to 2 feet), mostly out of the ESE with short periods around 8 to 9 seconds, and the combined energy of all swells is weak – you’re looking at values like 37, 31, 12... just nothing there. The wind is a mix of cross and onshore, making for choppy or weak, rippled conditions.
The first tiny glimmer comes on Thursday afternoon, July 10th. The swell bumps up just a touch to 0.8m (3 feet) from the ESE, period still short at 9 seconds, but the combined energy climbs to 98, which is still very weak. The wind goes cross-offshore from the SSE, so it will be clean. The forecast labels it “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions” – that’s being generous. It’s still barely a knee-high dribbler.
Then from Friday July 11th through to Sunday July 19th, it’s back to mostly poor, tiny conditions. Heights bob between 0.3m and 0.7m (1 to 2 feet). A few mornings, like Saturday July 11th and Tuesday July 14th, see light offshore or glassy winds, which would make the water look nice, but there’s just no swell to ride. The only other day that sneaks a “surfable” nod is Sunday afternoon, July 12th, with 0.7m (2 feet) ESE swell and light cross-offshore wind, but again, it’s weak (energy at 59).
There are no standouts. There is no good surf on offer. For a spot that’s very consistent, it’s a rough stretch, but forecasts can change. As for the water temp? Not a factor since there’s no wave to feel it in. The only thing going for Flagler Avenue right now is that it’s a good place to not bother.
Stay tuned, folks.
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.
