The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about what’s coming our way for Flagler Pier.
Honestly, the next couple of weeks look pretty flat and quiet. There’s no real swell to speak of, and the surf is going to be a struggle for most of the 16-day period. We’ve got tiny waves on offer, barely enough to get a decent ride, and nothing at all for the first part of the run. It's a long gap of small, unexciting conditions.
Looking at what little there is, the best bet – if you’re desperate for a paddle – is going to be around Sunday the 2nd of August into Monday the 3rd. On Sunday afternoon, we get a tiny 2 ft swell from the ESE with a clean, cross-offshore breeze. The combined wave energy is low at 36, so it's very weak. The water temp is sitting at 82°, about average for the time of year. It’s not going to be great, but it’s the most you’ll get.
Flagler Pier itself is an exposed beach and pier setup, and it’s fairly consistent in that it rarely goes completely flat, but the quality is poor. You’ll likely have company as it gets crowded often. With the swell from the ESE and a cross-offshore wind (SW), you might get some clean little peelers, but at 2 ft and 8-second period, it's just a dribble.
For the rest of the window, it’s all tiny surf with poor conditions. There are a few mornings with glassy or offshore winds, like the morning of August 5th when it’s glassy with a 1 ft swell from the ESE, but the energy is a weak 21. It’s more of a float than a surf. The afternoon of August 4th has a 2 ft swell from the east, but it’s still small.
Honestly, for this stretch, it might be more interesting for a kite session than a paddle if you get any wind, but for surfers, it's a waiting game. The forecasts can always change, but for now, this is a quiet spell.
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.
