The Lowdown
Alright, let’s have a look at Flagler Pier. The next sixteen days are a real mixed bag, and I gotta be honest with you – the early part of the run is a struggle. For the first several days, we’re looking at tiny, weak swell with lousy wind direction. You’ll see some glassy windows early on the 28th of August and again on the 5th of September, but the waves are just too small to get excited about – around 1 ft from the east. The energy is low, sitting at 46 (28 Aug morning) and 29 (5 Sep morning), so you’re really just bobbing around out there.
The best window in the whole 16-day outlook is shaping up for the morning of Wednesday, September 2nd. The swell bumps up to 2 ft from the east, with a period of 11 seconds, so there’s a bit more push and shape. The wind is glassy – dead calm – and that’s a big deal for cleaning up the surface. The combined energy hits 91, which is a modest bump but still on the weak side. It’s not a standout by any means, but it’s the best we’ll see. The water temperature is about average for this time of year.
The next morning, Thursday, September 3rd, also offers a glassy start with 2 ft east swell and a period of 10 seconds, energy at 65. Again, only just surfable, but at least you won’t be fighting the wind.
Beyond that, the rest of the second week is more of the same: tiny waves, mostly onshore winds, and a lot of poor surf conditions. The morning of Friday, September 4th, has a clean offshore wind from the SW, but the swell is only 2 ft from the east, so it’s still a small, weak wave. The energy is just 37.
Bottom line: if you’re desperate, the mornings of September 2nd and 3rd are your best bet. Otherwise, this stretch is a real test of patience. The combined energy for most of the run stays below 100, so you’re looking at very weak, small surf. It’s not a total write-off, but don’t expect much.

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.
