Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about Jensen Beach.
Honestly, mate, if you’re thinking about surfing over the next couple of weeks, you’re looking at a whole lot of nothing. The swell just isn’t showing up with any kind of energy, and when there’s a tiny bump, the wind usually ruins it.
Starting Monday afternoon (6 July), we’ve got a tiny 0.4m swell out of the southeast, but it’s short-period (4 seconds) and cross-onshore at 25 km/h, so it’s choppy and basically unsurfable. Tuesday (7 July) morning is clean and glassy with a 0.2m easterly swell (8 seconds), but there’s just no power. Tuesday afternoon gets cross-onshore again and stays tiny.
Wednesday (8 July) through Friday (10 July) is more of the same: weak southeast swells from 0.3m to 0.9m, all cross-onshore or choppy. Saturday (11 July) offers a morning 0.8m SE swell (5 seconds) but it’s cross-onshore again. No good.
The one moment that looks half-decent is Sunday morning (12 July). The wind goes glassy out of the WNW at 0 km/h, and we get a 0.2m easterly swell with a 7-second period. It’s clean, but it’s barely a ripple. You’d be floating out there with nothing to ride.
The second week stays small too. Monday (13 July) through Thursday (16 July) has some clean pockets with light offshore wind (WNW, WSW, SSW), but the swell stays at 0.2m to 0.6m. Water temp is about 30°C, which is pretty normal for this time of year.
Friday morning (17 July) goes glassy again with a 0.4m NE swell (8 seconds), but it’s still tiny. The weekend (18-19 July) picks up just a little: Saturday and Sunday mornings offer 0.7m to 0.9m SE swells (5 seconds) and clean conditions thanks to a light SSW cross-offshore breeze. That’s as good as it gets, but the period is short and the energy is low.
Monday (20 July) and Tuesday (21 July) keep the pattern: clean mornings with cross-offshore winds and 0.8m to 1.0m SE swells, but again, short period (5 seconds). Afternoons get cross-onshore and bumpy.
So there’s no standout session here. The best you’ll get is a clean, glassy morning with a knee-high wave, but it’s nothing to write home about. For Jensen Beach, this is a longer-than-normal flat run. Forecasts can change, but right now there’s just no surf worth paddling for.

Information about the Jensen Beach Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Jensen Beach provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Jensen Beach can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Jensen Beach 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 (Jensen Beach) 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 Jensen Beach 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.
Jensen Beach is 9 km (6 miles) from Stuart. If you plan a vacation in South Florida, look for hotels and other accommodation in Stuart. Stuart has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
