The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s cut to the chase. This whole 16-day stretch for Flagler Pier is looking flat-out disappointing. We’re talking a whole lot of nothing, with barely a ripple worth paddling for.
The opening days are a total bust. Through the 12th, it’s all ankle-biters and knee-high slop, with cross-shore breezes making it messy. Don’t even bother waxing up.
The water temp is about normal for this time of year, maybe just a touch cooler than we’d expect. That’s the only notable thing.
We get a whisper of a pulse on the 17th, but it’s tiny. Just 1ft of clean but super weak swell. The morning is glassy, which is nice, but it’s really just practice padding.
The18th actually shows a little more promise. We see 2ft in the morning with a moderate energy bump. It’s still small, but at least it might have a bit of push. The morning is clean and cross-off, so if you’re desperate, that’s the window. The afternoon gets chopped by an onshore breeze.
Then the 20th rolls in and gives us the best of the bunch. Glassy conditions with a 2-3ft east swell and a longer 11-second period. There’s some moderate energy behind it too. This is the most rideable wave of the entire period, but best here is a relative term. It’s still weak and small, but it’s the only time it might actually have some shape.
After that, it’s back to the same old story. A little bump on the 22nd and 23rd, but it’s short-period junk with onshore winds messing it up. The whole run is just a classic summer flat spell.
If you’re itching to get on the water, maybe look at the kite. With these tiny waves and the consistent breeze, that setup looks way more interesting than trying to surf this.
Stay patient. It won’t be like this forever.

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.
