The Lowdown
Alright, let’s break it down for Flamand in feet and mph. Over the next 16 days, from Monday 20 July through Tuesday 4 August, there’s basically zilch. The only blip is a marginal call on Sunday 2 August afternoon, but that’s still a 1 out of 10 – not worth suiting up for.
Flamand is a beginner spot, inconsistent, and fairly exposed to swell. The magic direction here is NNE, but we keep seeing swell from the east or east‑northeast, never the right angle. Swell heights run 3 ft to 7 ft, but periods are short – 6 to 8 seconds – so it’s weak, choppy wind swell. Combined energy numbers range from 54 to 447 – weak to moderate, but with messy lines. Winds are mostly cross‑off or cross, blowing 12–22 mph, which doesn’t help. Some mornings are clean, but the swell is too small and disorganised to ride.
Water temp is 83 °F, right about average. So no excuses there – just no waves. When a spot is inconsistent to begin with, a blank run like this isn’t unusual. I’d say leave the board in the car and try again in a week or two.

Information about the Flamand Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Flamand provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Flamand can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Flamand 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 (Flamand) 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 Flamand 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.
