The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: this is one of those stretches where the ocean just isn’t delivering. Over the next 16 days, there’s not a single session that I’d recommend paddling out for. The conditions are locked in a pattern of small, weak swell with poor-quality wind, and the wave energy just never gets its act together.
We’re looking at a long, quiet run starting now. The first record shows Tuesday morning, 4th August, with nothing more than 2 ft of east swell at a short 8 seconds. The combined energy is a measly 30, which is barely a ripple. That’s the story right through until Wednesday, 19th August. The swell height never climbs above 4 ft, and even then, it’s only on Friday afternoon, 7th August, when the combined energy hits 293 – still moderate, but the wind is straight onshore from the east at 9 mph, ruining any chance of shape. Water temperature is about average for the time of year, nothing unusual there.
The only break on the radar is Jetty Park, a beach/jetty setup that’s inconsistent and often crowded. It’s best for beginners, but with the swell direction coming from the east and southeast, it’s not hitting the optimum SSE direction. The swell is too small and weak for anyone to get excited about. For most of the period, east winds blow onshore or cross-onshore, leaving the surface choppy or messy. The few glimpses of clean conditions, like Tuesday morning, 4th August, with a light cross-offshore breeze, still have only 2 ft of swell and no energy. That’s not surf, that’s a lake.
Honestly, the setup here looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing when the wind picks up, like on Thursday afternoon, 6th August, with 9 mph onshore winds and a risk of thunderstorms. But for wave riding? It’s a bust. Don’t get too down – this area tends to be inconsistent, so a blank run like this is more normal. Forecasts can change, but for now, leave the boards in the car.
Rusty.

Information about the Jetty Park Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Jetty Park provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Jetty Park can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Jetty Park 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 (Jetty Park) 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 Jetty Park 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.
Jetty Park is 15 km (9 miles) from Cocoa. If you plan a vacation in North Florida, look for hotels and other accommodation in Cocoa. Cocoa has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
