Table - best surf conditions forecast for Flagler Pier over the next 16 days.
G'day, I'm Rusty, and I've had a good look at the charts for Flagler Pier over the next couple of weeks. I've got to be straight with you – it's looking like a long, dry spell.
The Overall Pattern
Honestly, there's a serious lack of energy in the water. The forecast is pretty much a flatline. We're looking at a stretch of at least 16 days where there's nothing that really qualifies as a surfable option. The combined swell energy is tiny – we're talking readings in the teens and twenties (24 is the highest in the first week), which is just weak, anemic energy. It's a real bummer for a spot that's pretty exposed.
For most of the period, we've got tiny waves from the ESE and SE, mostly around 1 to 2 ft with a short period around 7-8 seconds. That's just not enough push for a decent wave. The wind does offer a few clean windows – like Sunday morning the 12th with glassy conditions and a light offshore on Monday the 13th – but even then, the swell is basically non-existent at 1 ft. It's the definition of "poor surf conditions."
The Long Wait
We're looking at a solid two-week gap here. If you're hoping for a surf, you'll be disappointed. There's just no recommendation at any point. The finder is completely blank. For Flagler Pier, this kind of run isn't totally unusual, but it's a tough stretch. I wouldn't be surprised if it gets more interesting for the kite surfers than us paddlers.
I hate to say it, but this is a time to find something else to do. The water temp is sitting at a nice 84° on Sunday, which is bang on average for this time of year, but that's the only bright spot. Forecasts can change, but for now, it's a total write-off.
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.
