The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's chew the fat on this.
Looking at the next sixteen days, it's a tough one. From Friday the 31st of July right through to the morning of Friday the 7th of August, the swell is tiny, never really getting above 3 ft, and the wave energy is weak (mostly under 40). The wind is all over the shop – cross, cross-off, and sometimes onshore – so the surface is rarely clean. It's a real struggle for any decent surf.
The first sign of something more happens on Friday the 7th of August. The swell pushes up to 3-3 ft from the east, with the period stretching to 9-10 seconds. The combined energy kicks up to 125-131, so there's some moderate juice. It's onshore in the morning, so not perfect, but it's the best looking window at Flagler Pier (Flagler Pier).
If I had to pick a moment, it'd be the morning of Tuesday the 4th of August. The waves are tiny, maybe 2 ft, but the wind is glassy as a mirror. That little east-southeast swell with a 7-second period is weak, but if you've got a longboard, those little clean lines under a flat calm sky are the only ones worth chasing. The water temp is about 83°, which is pretty normal for this time of year.
After that, the second week is more of the same: small, weak waves and a fair bit of chop. The morning of Sunday the 9th of August is clean and glassy again, but still only 2 ft. Flagler Pier is the only real option, but it's a long shot.
Honestly, with the lack of size and the messy wind, this setup looks way better for a kite than a paddle. If you're keen, grab a log and hit Flagler Pier on the glassy mornings. Otherwise, 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.
