The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty checkin' in from Flagler Pier. Let's look at the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it's a tough stretch ahead for us here at Flagler Pier. The whole 16-day window is pretty much a write-off for any quality surf. I don't see a single day worth paddling out for. We're looking at wave heights struggling to even hit 3 feet for the vast majority of the period. The swell energy is consistently weak, barely even cracking three digits on the gauge most days – we're talkin' combined energy values between 7 and 177, which is just limp. It's all short-period wind chop, that's all we've got.
We do have a little bump around September 14th, Monday. That morning shows a 4ft swell from the ENE, with energy hitting 159, but it's a short period of 7 seconds and it's onshore wind. The description calls it "poor surf conditions" and gives it a zero. Even if there's a little more water moving, that onshore wind is gonna chop it to bits. For Thursday morning September 10th, we get a rare glassy morning and a clean looking ocean, but the swell is a tiny 1ft. It's barely a ripple.
No standouts here. Zero. The surf just isn't on. Don't bother with the long drive. Maybe get a kiteboard if you're desperate, but for a paddle surfer, this is a blank run. The forecast can always change, but right now, it's a big fat nothing.

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.
