The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's take a look at what's cooking for Flagler Pier.

Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – it's gonna be a quiet one. We're looking at a solid 16-day window, but honestly, there isn't a single session in there that I'd call "good." The opening days, starting from Saturday the 29th of August, are showing tiny dribbles of east swell around 1ft with a short period of 8 seconds. To make matters worse, the wind is a messy cross or cross-onshore, so the surface is gonna be chopped up. That wave energy is weak, sitting around 27, so don't expect any push.

We roll into Sunday and Monday, still the same story. Swell bumps up to just 2ft, but the period drops to a horrible 5 seconds on Sunday morning. The wind stays ugly, mostly cross-onshore. It's just poor conditions across the board. We're looking at a long, dry spell here with nothing worth paddling out for.

There's a little flicker of hope on Wednesday the 2nd of September. The swell hits 2ft from the east, and the period stretches to 11 seconds – that's a proper groundswell. The combined energy jumps into the moderate range at 112, which is the best we'll see. But the wind is still a cross-onshore from the ENE at 9 mph, keeping it choppy and messy. It's still classified as poor surf. Not worth getting too excited about.

After that, we slide into the first week of September and it's the same old tune. Swell stays tiny, mostly between 0.7ft and 2ft, with weak to moderate energy. There are a couple of mornings – like Friday the 4th and Saturday the 5th – where the wind goes glassy or calm, which would make the water look like a mirror. But with only 1ft to 2ft of weak, short-period swell, you'd be bobbing around more than surfing. It's a flat spell with a pretty face.

The second week, from the 7th onwards, is even more of a snooze. Swell drops to 0.7ft. Energy values are in the single digits and teens. A few of those mornings have a clean cross-offshore wind, which is a tease. If you're a beginner wanting to practice pop-ups on a tiny bump, go for it, but for anyone else, leave the board at home.

To sum it up: there is no standout in this 16-day forecast. If you were hoping for a bomb, it isn't coming. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there. It's a classic summer lull for Flagler Pier. Don't force it. Sometimes the best session is the one you skip.

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.
