The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's see what we've got cookin' for Flagler Pier. I gotta be straight with you – the next couple of weeks are lookin' flat. Real flat. We're staring down a long stretch of tiny, weak waves with barely any energy behind 'em. The good news is the water is sitting pretty warm at 82°, which is just a touch cooler than what we usually get this time of year, so you won't need a thick suit.

The first real sign of life doesn't pop up until way down the line, on Wednesday, August 19th. We got a tiny 1ft swell shuffling in from the ESE, but check it – the wind swings offshore out of the southwest at 15 mph. That's a game-changer for the quality. It'll be a clean, glassy kind of morning, but the wave energy is still weak – only reading 61 (combined energy). You'll be on a longboard, maybe a funboard, just enjoying the feeling of a smooth surface. The next morning, Thursday, August 20th, is also a small window of opportunity. The swell bumps up a hair to 2ft, coming from the east with a 10-second period, and we've got that offshore wind again, this time lighter from the SSW at 6 mph. Energy is still modest at 62. It's the same story – small, but clean for a fun morning paddle. After that, it's back to the flat spell.

The energy finally starts to show its teeth late on Tuesday, August 25th, but it's a messy affair. We get a pulse of 4ft from the NE, but it's a short-period, choppy windswell (7 seconds) and the wind is howling onshore. The energy jumps to 198 (moderate), but the conditions are pure junk. Then on Wednesday, August 26th, the swell pushes higher to 5ft from the ENE with a period of 8 seconds. The total energy reads 319 (moderate), and while the wind is lighter, it's still a cross-onshore. This is borderline surfable for the more experienced crew, but it's a far cry from the clean, lined-up waves we want. For a beach break, this kind of onshore wind just makes for a bumpy, frustrating session. The last few days of the outlook are a return to the tiny stuff.

So, if you're looking for the best of a bad bunch, circle the mornings of Wednesday, August 19th and Thursday, August 20th. They're small, no doubt, but with that offshore wind you'll at least get a clean, glidey ride on a bigger board. It's not a standout, but it's the only glimmer of quality in the whole 16-day window. If you're looking for power, you'll have to wait for the 25th and 26th, but bring your patience and a shortboard, because it'll be a bumpy ride for the experts only.

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.
