The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, checking in on Flagler Pier for the next couple weeks. Gotta be honest with you—this stretch is looking pretty dead, so don’t get too fired up.
Water temp is running about 83°F, pretty much what you’d expect for early August. No big surprises there.
We’ve got a long dry spell right out of the gate. The first surf worth even a second look doesn’t roll in until Saturday, August 8th, and even that’s nothing special. Until then, it’s all tiny waves, poor wind, and barely any energy. We’re talking waves around 1ft to 2ft, short periods, and combined energy numbers in the teens and low twenties. Total dud.
Saturday the 8th morning is the only real highlight. Flagler Pier gets a 3ft east swell with an 8-second period, and the combined energy hits 100 (moderate). The wind goes glassy—dead calm. That means clean, smooth conditions, even if the waves are small and ordinary. Crowds? Yeah, they’ll be there, because “often” is what we’re told.
After that, it’s right back to flatness. The rest of the week and into the next, you’re looking at 0.7ft to 2ft waves, weak energy mostly under 60, and a mix of cross-shore and onshore breezes messing things up. On the morning of August 18th, there’s a little clean offshore wind and 2ft waves, but the period is only 6 seconds—short and weak. Combined energy is just 54 (weak). It’s surfable, but barely.
Overall, this is a flat spell. The best bet for a paddle is that Saturday morning glass-off. If you’re just starting out, the small stuff might be alright. Otherwise, keep your board in the car and wait for a better forecast.
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.
