Hey gang, Rusty here. Let’s cut to the chase – the next couple of weeks are a real bummer for surfers. If you’re hoping for a proper wave, you’re going to be disappointed, so you might want to dust off the kite gear.
The full 16 days are a mess of tiny, choppy surf with no standout windows. From the 5th of July right through to the end of the period, there’s a long, empty stretch with no real recommendations. The first glimmer of anything promising? It just isn’t there.
Haulover (South Florida) – This is your only spot, and it’s an inconsistent beach and pier break that rarely has clean conditions. Over this whole stretch, waves barely reach 0.3ft to a maximum of about 3ft, mostly from the east or southeast, with super short periods (3 to 8 seconds). The wave energy is weak as can be (topping out at 45). Plus, the wind is almost always cross-onshore or onshore from the southeast or east, blowing at 9 to 16 mph, keeping everything choppy and blown out.
Water temperature is about 87°F, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. For a beginner-friendly break, even the best days with 3ft surf will be a mess of wind and short-period slop. To be honest, with all that wind and tiny, poor-quality surf, this setup looks far more suited to kite surfing than trying to paddle out.
The forecasts can always flip, but right now, we’re looking at a dry spell. Keep your board waxed and wait for a better window.
Rusty.

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