The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming our way for Jax Beach Pier.

Honestly, folks, it’s a bit of a quiet stretch ahead. We’re looking at a long, flat spell to start. For the first week and a half, there’s barely a ripple worth paddling for. The surf is small, weak, and just not cooperating. A lot of those days are showing combined swell energy values under 100 (as low as 7 to 55) – that’s weak, windswell stuff with poor conditions. It’s going to be a tough run until we see something change.

Now, looking further out, there is a glimmer. Around Saturday the 25th of July, we finally see something that isn’t a total write-off. The morning shows a small 1.3 ft swell from the east, with a period of 12 seconds. That’s a little bit of groundswell energy sneaking in, with a combined energy of 46. The winds are light and cross-offshore from the SSW, which should keep it clean. It’s still small, only surfable but very ordinary, so don’t expect anything epic. Still, it’s the best we’ve got in this entire outlook. The east swell direction is a decent match for the spot.

The water temperature is sitting at a warm 84.7°, which is 1.4° warmer than average for this time of year. Nothing too unusual there, just your typical warm summer water.

Because the surf is so small and weak for such a long stretch, and the setup is a beach/pier, this whole period looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. The consistent cross-offshore breezes will be good for that. As for crowds at Jax Beach Pier, it’s a very consistent spot that can get crowded, but with surf this tiny, it won’t be an issue.

Keep an eye on the forecasts – things can change, but for now, it’s a waiting game.

Information about the Jax Beach Pier Surf forecast

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