The Lowdown
Hey, Rusty here.
Look, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Flagler Pier is lookin' at a real flat spell over the next 16 days. The numbers are tiny, the models are showin' next to nothing, and it's gonna be a long stretch of disappointing surf. Water temp's 83°, which is about what you'd expect this time of year.
We start on Tuesday, July 28th, and it's already a bust. A 1-foot easterly windswell with an 8-second period and a cross-shore breeze. The combined energy is only 15 (weak). Total waste of time.
Wednesday the 29th is cleaner with an offshore wind, but the swell is still just 1 foot. Not a damn thing to ride. Thursday the 30th is even smaller at 0.7 feet. This same tiny, clean but unsurfable pattern goes all the way through the end of July and into August.
The one and only highlight shows up on Sunday afternoon, August 2nd. We finally get some juice: a 5-foot southeast swell, short 5-second period, but with a clean offshore wind. The combined energy jumps to 171 (moderate). That's the best of the lot. It'll be a bit lumpy because of the short period, but it's the only session worth even thinkin' about.
After that, it's back to the desert. A few glassy mornings come through around August 6th to 9th, but the swell is under 2 feet. Same story on August 11th and 12th – clean conditions, tiny 1-foot east-southeast windswell, nothin' to get excited about.
So, to put it plain: Flagler Pier is in a deep, deep slumber. Your only real chance is Sunday, August 2nd. For the rest of it, you're better off findin' something else to do. It's a tough run, but it happens here. Forecasts can change, but right now, it's flat.
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.
