The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Gotta give it to you straight.
This 16-day stretch at Jax Beach Pier is a total flat spell. From Saturday morning through Sunday, August 9th, there’s nothing worth paddling out for. The best we get is a tiny 0.6m on Saturday morning with a weak 8-second period and combined energy of just 47—barely a bump. Water temp’s at 28°, right where it should be for the season, so at least it’s warm for a swim.
That Saturday morning is glassy, dead calm, but the swell is too small to ride. After that, it’s all downhill: 0.5m, 0.4m, even 0.1m junk. A few mornings see light offshore winds, like Wednesday the 29th or August 2nd, but with no swell, it’s clean and flat. The only little pulse comes Friday, August 7th, with 0.9m out of the ESE, but the period is a short 7 seconds and the wind is cross-off—won’t hold shape. Energy is still weak at 86.
If you’ve got a kite, that Friday afternoon might be worth a look. For paddle surfing? Not a chance.
The breaks here are very consistent, so this kind of dead run is unusual. It won’t stay like this forever, and forecasts can change. Stay tuned.

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.
