The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's take a look at what's on the cards for Flagler Pier.
Straight up, it's a tough stretch for the next week or so. The swell is mostly tiny and the wind is all over the shop, keeping things pretty flat and choppy. The water temp is a bit cooler than normal for this time of year, sitting at 82°F.
We’ve got a long, quiet run from now until the end of the month. There's a glimmer of hope around Wednesday, September 2nd, when a pulse of swell pushes in. The morning sees a 4ft swell from the east with a period of 11 seconds, and the combined energy jumps to a moderate 457. It's a bit of a raw one though, with a risk of thunderstorms and a light cross-onshore wind, so it's a marginal call at best and probably only for the keen.
The real standout, if you can call it that, comes on the morning of Thursday, September 3rd. We get glassy conditions with a 2ft easterly swell. It’s nothing massive, but a clean, glassy surface is a major win around here. The swell energy is still weak at 81, but a clean lineup with small waves is better than a choppy mess.
After that, it’s back to the same old story. From the 4th through to the 13th, the swell drops right back to 1ft to 2ft, with periods mostly under 9 seconds. The wind is a bit of a mixed bag, but nothing that will turn these tiny waves into anything special. There are a few mornings with clean cross-offshore winds, but the energy is just too weak to get excited about. Late in the run, on the afternoon of September 8th, we see a 2ft swell from the east with a very long period of 13 seconds. The energy is moderate at 107, but it's a long-period groundswell that might break a bit too straight for a beach setup like this, and the size is still tiny.
To be honest, this is a quiet period for Flagler Pier. There's nothing on offer that's going to get the heart racing. Keep an eye on that glassy morning of the 3rd if you're desperate for a paddle, but otherwise, it's a waiting game.
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.
