Right, folks, it’s Rusty here, and I’ve got to be straight with you. Looking at our 16-day window for Flagler Pier, it’s a tough one. The data shows there is no surf worth paddling out for at all during this entire period. We’re talking a full 16 days with no recommendations. Every single session is marked as "poor surf conditions" with a score of zero out of ten. It’s a grim run for the beach/pier setup here.
The swell energy is weak for almost the entire stretch. You’ll see tiny little numbers like 13 to 51 in the combined swell energy for the first week and a bit, which is just a whisper of energy. The swell heights are consistently around 1.0ft to 2ft, with a few odd pulses bumping up to 3ft. Even on the 9th of July, when the swell bumps to 3ft and the combined energy hits a moderate 203, the wind and conditions still ruin it. The period is short, mostly 7 to 9 seconds, so there’s no push or shape.
There are a few mornings with glassy or offshore wind, like the 5th, 6th, 7th, 10th, and 12th of July, but the swell is just too small and weak to do anything with. That 1.0ft on the 5th with glassy conditions is a tease – it looks clean but offers nothing to ride. Later on, around the 13th and 15th of July, we get some moderate offshore winds from the WSW, but again, the swell is only 1ft to 2ft, so it’s a flat paddle. For an exposed spot like Flagler Pier, needing swell from the NE to work, the tiny, short-period E to ESE swell we’re seeing just isn’t going to cut it. It would be more interesting for the kite surfers on a few of those breezier afternoons than for us wave hunters.
For the whole 16-day run, there is not a single standout session. This is a blank run for the area. Stay optimistic, conditions change, but right now, you’re better off doing something else.
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.
