The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – this stretch ahead is a tough one. Don’t get your hopes up.
Look, for the entire 16-day window, there’s only one spot getting any kind of nod, and that’s Jetty Park (beach/jetty). The entire run is a major bummer. We’re looking at a solid gap from now until around Friday, September 18th, where it’s just not happening. The first real glimmer of anything surfable is Friday morning, the 18th.
The water temp is sitting at about 86°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s about the only thing that’s not a letdown.
Alright, so on Friday, September 18th, the morning glass-off is your only real shot. Swell comes from the ENE at about 3 ft with a short period of 8 seconds. The combined energy is weak, only 129. The wind goes glassy, which is a massive positive – you’ll get clean, smooth conditions. It’ll be surfable, but it’s ordinary. Expect some fun little waves if you’re on a log or a fish, but nothing to write home about. Anything after that morning session turns to rubbish.
From Saturday, September 19th, onwards, it all falls apart. The swell drops off to ankle-snappers, the winds turn ugly, and every day is just “poor surf conditions”. Periods get as short as 4 to 6 seconds, meaning it’s just bumpy, wind-driven slop. There’s a slight uptick in energy around Friday, September 25th, and Saturday, September 26th, with ENE swell hitting 4 ft and combined energy climbing to 300, but the wind is cross-onshore or onshore, making it a messy, lumpy mess. With those short periods, it’s going to close out fast and be no fun at all. Honestly, if you see wind like that and that kind of chop, your kite might have a better time than your surfboard.
That’s the whole story. A real dry spell. Keep your board waxed and hope the forecasts change, but for now, it's a frustrating wait.
This is Rusty, signing off.

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.
