The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty. Let me tell you straight: it's a pretty bleak 16-day window for Flagler Pier. We're looking at a long stretch of flat to tiny, weak surf that's barely worth a paddle.
The whole period kicks off on Sunday, August 2nd, and honestly, the first two weeks are a write-off. We're talking near-flat conditions with tiny 1.3 ft to 3 ft swell, mostly weak and short-period stuff from the ESE at 6 to 8 seconds. The combined wave energy is weak, mostly sitting between 15 and 99. The wind is all over the place too—cross-off, onshore, cross-shore—but it hardly matters because there's no real swell to work with. On Saturday, August 8th, the swell bumps up a bit to 4.6 ft from the E, and we see a jump in energy to 347 (moderate), but the wind is straight onshore from the NE. It's a messy, blown-out 4.6 ft—not great, and honestly at that size with onshore wind, the setup might look more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
The real kicker comes at the very end. On Sunday, August 16th, in the afternoon, we finally get a glimpse of something surfable. The swell is still small at 2 ft from the ESE, but the period is a slightly better 7 seconds, and the combined energy is 52. The wind is a light cross-off from the SSW, making for clean conditions. This is the only period in the whole 16-day window that gets even a 1 out of 10. It's surfable but very ordinary.
So there you have it. A massive, boring gap of about 14 days with no recommendations. That Sunday the 16th is your only real shot, and it's a minor one. For Flagler Pier, this kind of blank run is more normal for the area.

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.
Flagler Pier is 3 km (2 miles) from the city of Ormond Beach. If you plan a vacation in North Florida, look for hotels and other accommodation in Ormond Beach. Ormond Beach has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
