The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here.
Alright, let’s be straight up about Flagler Pier. We’ve got a long, flat run ahead of us with barely a ripple to get excited about for the first week and a half. The water’s sitting at 82°, about a degree cooler than usual, so nothing too wild there.
From now right through until the morning of Tuesday, September 10th, it’s just one poor surf call after another. Swells are tiny, mostly around 1.0ft to 2ft from the east or southeast with short periods under 8 seconds. The wind is almost always cross-onshore or onshore, chopping things up. There’s a little bump on the morning of Wednesday, September 2nd with a 3ft east swell and a period of 11 seconds – that gives us a moderate 178 (combined wave energy), but the onshore wind ruins it. It stays messy right through to the 9th.
The first real glimmer shows up on the morning of Thursday, September 10th. The wind goes glassy – dead calm – and the sea is clean. The swell is still tiny at 2ft from the east with a 9-second period and only 71 (weak energy), but at least it’s surfable, just very ordinary. That’s the best we get, and it’s barely a paddle.
Honestly, for the entire 16-day period, there isn’t a single standout. Nothing worth calling a session. If you’re desperate for a glide, that Thursday the 10th morning is your only chance for a clean but tiny wave. Otherwise, it’s a long stretch of flatness with a bit of chop. Better luck next time.
Stay salty,
Rusty

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.
