The Lowdown
Hey, it’s Rusty again, switching over to feet and knots for you.
Looking at Flagler Pier, the outlook starts with a real dry spell. For the rest of August, we’re looking at tiny swell—waves hovering around 0.6 to 2 feet—with combined energy stuck in the weak range. Most afternoons get chopped up by moderate cross or cross-onshore breezes. Not much to paddle for.
The first real flicker of life shows on the morning of Tuesday, September 1st. A 2 foot east swell rolls in with a long 15-second period, pushing combined energy into moderate territory at 136. Winds go glassy. It’s still only rated as ordinary, but it’s a start. The afternoon gets messy again, so dawn patrol is your shot.
Wednesday, September 2nd morning is the best we’ve got. Glassy conditions, a 3 foot east swell at 12 seconds, and combined energy pumping at 216. That’s clean, fun-sized surf for intermediates, and the direction suits the break well. Afternoon sees a light cross-shore creep in, but that morning window is money.
After that, things slip back into the ordinary range through early September. Waves hold around 2 to 3 feet but with shorter periods and less energy. Nothing else stands out.
Water temperature is about normal for the season. So, a long wait for a couple of decent mornings, with Wednesday the 2nd being the one to circle.
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.
