Alright folks, let’s get real about Flies. It’s a long 16-day outlook, and to be honest, it’s mostly a flat spell. For the first week, from now right through Thursday, July 9th, don’t bother. We’re talking days of nothing but wind chop and tiny little bumps – combined wave energy barely registering 20 or 30. The water’s sitting at 72°, which is a touch warmer than average, but that’s the only highlight.

The one and only real chance to get wet comes on Friday afternoon, July 10th. That’s your standout. A 4ft swell from the SSW, with the wind clocking offshore from the NW at a light 9 mph. That’s going to make it clean and glassy for a few hours. The combined energy hits 227, which is actually decent for this break. The period is a short 7 seconds, so it’ll be a bit racy, but the offshore wind is a total game-changer. It’s a beach and jetty spot, fairly consistent, and with a few other heads in the water, but it’s worth it.

After that, Saturday, July 11th, has a 3ft south swell with a 9-second period (136 energy), but a 9 mph cross-onshore breeze messes it up. The rest of the second week is grim. Tiny south and southwest swells, onshore winds, and combined energy sitting in the 30s and 40s. There’s a morning on Tuesday, July 14th, that goes glassy on a tiny 3ft wave, but it’s just too weak to ride. The break really needs a good solid southwest groundswell to work, and it’s just not getting it.

Stick to Friday afternoon, July 10th. That’s the only one.

Rusty.

Information about the Flies Surf forecast

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

Flies is 32 km (20 miles) from Mastic. If you plan a vacation in Long Island New York, look for hotels and other accommodation in Mastic. Mastic has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
