The Lowdown
Alright, let's get into it. This is Rusty, and I gotta be straight with you – looking out over the next sixteen days, it’s a flat spell for the Freeport Pier area, with no surf worth paddling out for.
Right now, and through the entire forecast window, we just don't have the energy. There's a sliver of hope mid-week next week, around the 17th and 18th of September, where the combined swell energy bumps up a little to 135 (moderate energy), with chest-high waves around 5 ft coming from the ESE. But the problem is, the wind is going to be on it hard from the east at 19 mph, making it choppy and lumpy. It’s just not gonna be a fun session; the quality is poor.
The rest of the run is, to be honest, a bust. We're looking at ankle to knee-high leftovers for days on end, with periods under 8 seconds, meaning the waves will be weak and disorganised. The water temperature is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, sitting at 87°F.
There are a few mornings where the wind goes glassy or light offshore from the NNW, like on the 19th and the morning of the 22nd, but with barely a ripple on the water and almost no swell, it’s a total flat spell. Nothing to ride. It's a long stretch of nothing here, so keep your board waxed and hope the forecasts change.
This is Rusty, signing off.

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