The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, and let’s break down what’s happening at Flagler Pier over the next couple of weeks.
First things first, it’s a slow start. We’re looking at a solid gap of about six days with barely a wave worth paddling for. From right now straight through the end of the first week of September, it’s mostly tiny, weak junk. The water’s sitting at 81°, which is a touch cooler than average for this time of year, but there’s nothing to ride anyway so it doesn’t much matter.
The only real bright spot shows up on Monday, 7th September, in the morning. We’ve got a solid pulse of swell coming from the NE at about 5 feet. The combined energy is 227 (moderate wave energy), meaning there’s some real push behind it. The period is short at 7 seconds, so the waves will be a little lumpy, but we’ve got a light cross-offshore breeze (WNW at 6 mph) that’ll keep the surface clean. That’s your best window. This spot is fairly consistent and exposed to the NE, so the setup is right, and when the surf shows, the crowd shows too – expect company.
That Monday morning is the highlight. After that, it drops off fast. Tuesday the 8th has a bit of leftover swell but the wind’s onshore and chops it all to bits. By Wednesday the 9th, the wind turns glassy but the swell is small (around 2 to 3 feet). The period stretches out to 11 seconds, which makes for longer gaps between sets and a bit more shape, but for a beach and pier setup, long period swells often just wall up and close out. You might pull into a few but don’t expect a classic session.
From Thursday the 10th all the way through to Tuesday the 15th, it’s mostly flat or blown out. Tiny swell, poor wind, or both. There’s no other standout session in the whole 16-day window. If you’re itching to paddle out, aim for that Monday 7th September morning and make the most of it.
Keep your head up, the ocean might surprise us.
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.
