The Lowdown
Right, grab a coffee, because I’m looking at the next 16 days here at Flagler Pier, and it's a bit of a tough one. To be straight with you, there’s no real surf to get excited about for the first week and a half. The swell is tiny, mostly around 0.7 ft to 1.0 ft from the ESE, and the period is short, so the energy is weak. It’s the kind of setup where you’re just floating around, not really riding. The combined energy sits between 10 and 43 (weak) for most of that stretch, which tells you all you need to know.
The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing weird going on there.
The only flicker of something happens on the morning of Wednesday, 30th July, when we get a bit of a bump. The swell picks up to 2 ft from the ESE with a period of 9 seconds, and the combined energy hits 47 (still weak-to-moderate). The wind is glassy in the morning, which is a major positive, making for clean, smooth conditions. That’s your best chance to get a few small, clean waves. But don’t expect any power. Afternoon gets choppy again.
The only other morning that comes close is Saturday, 25th July, with a clean 2 ft from the ESE, but the period is only 5 seconds and the energy is 45 (weak). It’s messy.
Honestly, there’s no standout session here. The best call is the glassy morning on Wednesday, 30th July, for a small, clean paddle. The size is only 2 ft, so it’s safe for beginners, but it’s not a "go-out-and-charge" day. For the rest of it, the wind is often onshore or cross-shore, and the swell is just too weak to do anything with. The crowd at Flagler Pier can be "often" busy, but with this lack of surf, it’ll be quiet.
For the second week, I’m looking at the few clean mornings with a bit more energy, like the 24th July afternoon (3 ft, 131 energy) but the wind is a moderate breeze and cross-off, so it’s clean but still small. Same story.
Bottom line: there’s a 9-day gap of poor surf before that Wednesday morning on the 30th. It’s not looking great, but forecasts can change, and it’s a fairly consistent break, so it won’t stay this flat forever.

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.

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.
