The Lowdown
Alright, folks, let me level with you. I've combed through the charts for Fort Pierce North Jetty, and I gotta be straight with you – it's a bleak stretch ahead. The numbers just aren't delivering for a paddle. The entire 16-day window is a write-off for any decent surf. We're looking at a solid two and a half weeks of tiny, weak waves. The highest combined energy we see is a modest 165 on the 21st of September, but even that's paired with onshore wind and a poor surf rating. You're staring at a gap with no real recommendations from start to finish. Normally, this area can bounce back, but this run is a long one. For a spot that's very consistent, this is a real bummer.
The morning of the 9th of September shows the best of a bad bunch, with a weak 3ft swell from the ENE, but with a short period of 9 seconds and a light cross-onshore breeze, it's just not going to be any fun. The water is sitting about average for this time of year. Honestly, with the poor quality and onshore winds, this looks more interesting for the kite surfers than for anyone on a paddleboard.
