Alright, Rusty here, looking at the Flagler Pier stretch. Flat spell, plain and simple. Over the next 16 days, there’s no real surf on offer at Flagler Pier. We’ve got a long run—more than two weeks—where the swell stays small and the conditions don't line up for a proper wave. It’s a tough run for this part of the coast, but that happens sometimes. We just gotta wait for the next system to show up.
Let’s walk through it. Starting Monday, July 6th onward, we’re looking at tiny 1 ft to 2 ft swell, mostly from the E and ESE, with periods hanging around 8 to 9 seconds. That’s short-period, weak-energy stuff, with the combined energy reading between 13 and 74—very weak. The morning windows occasionally see a glassy or offshore wind from the SW or SSW, which would clean it up, but with no height, it’s just flat and pretty. The afternoons are wrecked by a strong SE sea breeze, 15 to 19 mph, making for lumpy, choppy conditions.
Even the standouts? There aren’t any. No day gives us a real wave to ride. The best you could hope for is a glassy 1 ft bump on Wednesday morning, July 8th, or a similar tiny, clean window on the 10th and 11th, but that’s a knee-high dribble, not a wave. Given that the swell never tops 2 ft and the energy stays weak, it’s a write-off for paddle surfing. Honestly, with that onshore wind in the afternoons and the weak, short-period swell, this setup might look more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. Hang in there, friends. Forecasts can change.

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.
