The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here, and I’ve got to be straight with you right off the bat – it’s looking like a pretty flat run for Flagler Pier for the foreseeable future. We’re gonna have to be a little patient.

The swell energy is basically non-existent through the first week, with combined energy values sitting in the teens and twenties (like 7 to 20 range), just tiny, weak little wind slop. The water is sitting around 81°, which is a bit colder than we’d expect this time of year.

Things start to show a faint pulse around Wednesday the 9th of September, with the swell trying to push up to 3ft from the NE. The combined energy hits a "moderate" 108, but it’s coming in with a short period of 8 seconds and the wind is a mess – onshore and cross-onshore all day. That’s just a choppy, blown-out mess, not something you paddle out for.

We get a little moment of hope on Thursday the 10th of September. In the morning, the wind goes totally glassy – dead calm – and we’ve got 2ft of NE swell. The waves are there but very ordinary, a 1/10 kind of day. It’s the cleanest it’ll be all week with no wind, so if you’re desperate, you could probably find a knee-high crumble on a log.

After that, it’s back to mainly poor surf conditions with light breezes and tiny swell. The next real uptick is towards the end of the outlook, around Friday the 18th of September, when the swell pushes up to 4ft from the NE with combined energy of 216, which is a "moderate" bump. But it’s coming with an onshore wind and only 8 second period – likely to be stormy and lumpy. Saturday the 19th holds similar 3ft to 3ft+ NE swell but again, onshore winds and moderate energy around 138-139.

Truthfully, there’s no standout day here. The best chance for a clean wave is the glassy morning of the 10th, but it’s tiny. The bigger swell later in the second week is all wind-affected. For this stretch, I’d keep the board in the car and just check the tide for a knee-high ripple on the glassy days. This is one of those stretches where you remember why you have other hobbies.

Stay patient, keep the wax warm.

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.
