The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s happening at Flagler Pier for the next couple of weeks.

To be honest, this is a pretty grim stretch for anyone wanting to paddle out. We’re looking at a solid 16-day run with hardly any real swell to speak of. The first week is a total washout. From Thursday, 23 July all the way through to Wednesday, 29 July, it’s tiny, weak, and mostly messy. You’ll see waves around 1 ft to 3 ft, but it’s all short-period, 8-second wind swell. The combined energy is weak, never cracking 100 (most days it’s between 22 and 83). The winds are a mixed bag of cross-on and cross-shore, so expect a lot of chop and closeouts. The water temp is a warm 83°F, which is pretty normal for this time of year, so at least you won’t freeze while you’re waiting.

There is one tiny glimmer, but it’s hardly a standout. On Wednesday, 29 July afternoon, the wind swings offshore from the WSW at 15 mph, which cleans things up nicely. The swell bumps up to 3 ft from the SE, still a short 8-second period, but the energy finally ticks over to 120 – that’s moderate. The wave report says “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions,” and I’d agree. It’s the best of a bad bunch, but it’s not a day to call in sick for. It’s an intermediate-level wave, and Flagler Pier can get crowded, so expect company.

After that, it’s back to the doldrums. From Thursday, 30 July through to Friday, 7 August, we’re talking waves that barely hit 1 ft. The energy drops back to pathetic single-digit or low-double-digit numbers. The wind is often offshore or glassy, so the surface will be clean, but there’s simply no juice in the water. The swell period stays short, mostly 8 seconds or less. On Saturday, 2 August and Sunday, 3 August, we get a little bump with offshore winds, but the swell is still only 1 ft – nothing to get excited about. By Monday, 3 August afternoon, the swell nudges up to 2 ft from the ESE with a moderate offshore wind, and the energy hits 71, which is still weak. It’s surfable, but very ordinary.

The long-range stuff into the first week of August is just more of the same: tiny, weak, and clean. There’s nothing on the horizon that looks worth planning for. The break is a beach/pier setup, so it’s inconsistent at the best of times, and this stretch is a real dry spell. With the wind and tiny swell, it honestly looks more interesting for a kite session than a paddle surf, if you’re into that.

Bottom line: if you’ve got a board, leave it in the car for the next two weeks. The only window that’s even remotely worth a look is Wednesday afternoon, 29 July, and that’s a long shot.

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.
