Table - best surf conditions forecast for Flagler Pier over the next 16 days.
Hey, Rusty here. I’ve been digging through the numbers for Flagler Pier and, honestly, it’s a tough one. This whole 16‑day window, from July 7 right through to July 22, there’s nothing worth paddling out for. Flagler Pier is usually a fairly consistent beach/pier setup, but the swell just isn’t showing up. The water temp is sitting at 85°, which is about normal for this time of year, but that’s the only thing that’s average.
The first few days are flat – tiny 1.0ft lumps from the ESE with a 9‑second period, and the wind is cross or cross‑shore most of the time. Wednesday afternoon (July 8) sees a little bump to 3ft from the SE, and the combined energy hits 153 (moderate), but the wind is a fresh 19 mph cross‑shore, so it’s lumpy and messy – not surfable. Thursday morning (July 9) has clean offshore conditions (SSW 3 mph), but the swell is only 2ft from the E, period 9 seconds – too weak to do anything with. That pattern repeats: glassy mornings with 1.0–2ft waves, but the energy is tiny (20–50 range), and the afternoons get blown out by 16–19 mph cross‑shore winds. The swell direction is mostly ESE or SE, which is far from the NE optimum that Flagler Pier really needs to light up.
Around July 15, there’s a brief shift – a 2ft NE swell with a 7‑second period on Wednesday morning, combined energy 69 (weak), and the wind is light cross‑offshore, so it’s clean. The wave comment says “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions” – that’s the best it gets, but it’s still tiny and short‑period. July 16 morning goes glassy with 2ft from the ENE, but again, weak. The rest of the week is even smaller – 1.0–1ft, poor wind, and the energy stays below 30. Even the last few days, July 22, have offshore wind (SW 9–12 mph) but only 2ft from the E. Nothing builds.
So, bottom line: there’s no standout whatsoever. Flagler Pier is a fairly consistent break, but this 16‑day stretch is a total write‑off. Forecasts can change, but right now it’s hard to be optimistic. I’d take a break and check back in a week or so.

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.
