Alright, Rusty here again, but in feet and knots.

Let’s be real about Jax Beach Pier. This 16-day window is a long, flat stretch. There’s a big gap of nothing from now until the 26th of July. The swell is tiny, choppy, or just gone.

The water is running about 85°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year.

From Sunday the 12th through the 24th of July, the surf is poor. You’re looking at knee-high ESE windswell with periods around 8 to 9 seconds, but the wind is all over the place. Not worth the drive.

There is a clean moment on Wednesday morning the 15th when the wind goes glassy, but the swell is only 1 foot from the ESE. It’s a flat spell.

The only real day to mention is the morning of Sunday the 26th of July. We get 3 feet of swell from the SE, period a short 5 seconds, but the wind is light and cross-off, keeping it clean. Combined energy is still weak at 54. It’s surfable, but very ordinary. For a beach/pier, that short period isn’t going to make for a classic wave.

After that, it’s back to flat or onshore chop. This is a tough run for a spot that’s usually very consistent, but these things happen. Don’t put the boards away, but don’t get your hopes up either.

Rusty.

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.
