Table - best surf conditions forecast for Flagler Pier over the next 16 days.
Alright, let’s get straight into it. Flagler Pier is the only game in town, and to be honest, folks, it’s a tough watch. The entire 16-day forecast is a flat, wind-battered mess. We’re looking at a solid two and a half weeks with next to nothing worth paddling out for.
Right now, starting Thursday the 9th, we’ve got tiny 2ft easterly windswell with a short 9-second period, and the combined energy is a weak 45. It’s clean in the morning with a light offshore, but the water is a warm 84°, which is about average for the time of year, so that’s one positive. But the waves are just too small and weak to do anything with. By afternoon, the seabreeze kicks in hard from the SE at 16 mph, turning it into a lumpy, choppy mess.
This pattern doesn’t let up. Friday the 10th through to the end of next week, we see the same story: swell heights bouncing between 0.7ft and 1ft, periods stuck at 8 seconds, and combined energy values that barely crack 30 or 40 most days. There’s a slight bump on Wednesday the 15th, with a 4ft SE swell, but the period is a terrible 4 seconds and the wind is onshore, so it’s just a washing machine. Mid-week the following week, around Thursday the 16th, there’s a brief flash of something surfable with 1ft ENE swell and a light offshore, but it’s still very ordinary.
Honestly, for a beach/pier setup like Flagler Pier, this is a proper drought. If you’re a kitesurfer, the afternoons with 16 mph cross-shore winds might offer some fun, but for a paddle surfer, there’s nothing to get excited about. The best you can hope for is a glassy morning on the 14th or 17th with 1ft swell, but it’s barely a ripple. Keep the wax in the car.

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