G’day, Rusty here. Let’s be straight—Flagler Pier (Flagler-Pier) is lookin’ at a pretty bleak stretch ahead. For the next fortnight or so, you’re gonna be starin’ at tiny, weak dribble with hardly any energy behind it. The first proper surf worth mentionin’ doesn’t roll in until Wednesday, July 8th, and even then, it’s not exactly gonna set the world on fire. Before that, Saturday the 4th through to Tuesday the 7th is a total write-off—waist-high at best, mostly poor conditions, with combined wave energy way down in the teens and forties (44 down to 13). Sunday the 5th and Monday the 6th have a bit of mornin’ offshore or glass, but the swell’s only 1 ft and the period’s short—it’s barely a ripple.
Come Wednesday, July 8th, we finally get a pulse. Mornin’ sees 2 ft of easterly swell at 9 seconds, with combined energy up to 50. It’s still not much, but the wind’s a light cross-off from the WSW, so the surface stays clean. The afternoon jumps a little—3 ft from the SE with a 9-second period and energy hittin’ 193—but the wind swings into a moderate cross-off from the SSE, keepin’ it clean enough. That’s about as good as it gets across the whole outlook. It’s tiny, it’s ordinary, but if you’re desperate, Wednesday the 8th morning is your pick. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
Thursday the 9th morning offers 1 ft with a light offshore, clean but weak. The afternoon’s a bit bigger at 3 ft from the SE, but it’s still poor surf conditions despite the energy reading 193. Friday the 10th is similar—mornin’ has 2 ft and clean conditions, but that’s about it. After that, the whole second week drifts back into tiny, messy junk. Saturday, July 18th, morning sees a little 2 ft NE windswell with a short 6-second period, but the energy’s only 45 and it’s still rated poor. Honestly, for most of this 16-day window, the setup looks more suited to a kite than a paddle—beach and pier, bumpy cross-shore winds, and hardly any push. Keep an eye on forecasts though; it tends not to stay flat forever.
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.
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.
