The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming up for Flagler Pier.
To be honest, mate, it's a pretty flat spell ahead. The next couple of weeks are looking like a real struggle for any decent waves. The first decent chance doesn't roll around until Saturday the 25th of July, and even then it's just a small bump. Before that, we’re looking at a solid week of nothing worth paddling out for. From the 17th right through to the 24th, it’s all tiny, weak swells with poor conditions. You’ll be sitting on your board more than you’ll be surfing.
The first real glimmer comes on Saturday morning the 25th. We’ve got a tiny 3 ft swell from the ESE, with a short period of 5 seconds. The combined energy is only 68 (weak), so it’s not going to be powerful. The wind is light from the SSW, keeping things clean. The morning has a 1 out of 10 score, so it’s surfable but very ordinary. It’s a small, weak wave that’s best for a longboard or a foamie. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so no need to stress about a wetsuit.
After that, it’s back to the flatness. The next slight chance pops up on Wednesday the 29th of July. The morning offers the same 3 ft from the ESE, with a 6-second period, and glassy conditions thanks to a light SE wind. The energy is still weak at 68. It’s another surfable but ordinary day. The swell is so small and weak that it’s going to be a real struggle to get a decent ride. The rest of the days in the second week are just tiny, choppy, or cross-shore chop. Not a single standout session in the whole 16-day window.
Honestly, if you’re desperate for a paddle, the 25th and 29th July mornings are your best bets for a clean, small wave on a longboard. Otherwise, this is a classic Florida summer flat spell. The conditions might be more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer on some of those afternoons with a bit more breeze.
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.
