The Lowdown
Alright, it’s Rusty here. Let me tell you, it’s a tough one. We have got a sixteen-day window from the 17th of August all the way into the first of September, and honestly, there isn’t a single day that stands out as a proper surf session. The entire period is a write-off for anything resembling decent waves.
The first week is especially bleak. From Monday the 17th right through to Saturday the 22nd, we are looking at tiny swell, barely registering. Those ESE and ENE swells are offering up a weak 0.7 ft, consistently. What hurts is that there are some great wind windows — like Tuesday the 18th afternoon with glassy conditions, and Thursday the 20th morning also glassy — but with combined energy readings in the single digits to low teens, there is just nothing to ride. The water temperature at Juno Pier is sitting at 87°F with an anomaly of plus 2°F, so it is a little warmer than usual for this time of year, but that doesn't help the wave situation.
By the second week we start to see a few pulses of energy, but they are short-period, messy slop. The 23rd of August brings a bump to 2 ft from the SE, but that combined energy is only 34, and the period is a pathetic 5 seconds. Sunday the 24th is similar, and then the 26th shows a slight increase with combined energy hitting 56, but the swell direction is all over the place and the wind is cross-onshore. On the 27th, there is a morning of glassy conditions with a 1.0 ft ESE swell and a period of 12 seconds, giving a combined energy of 77. That is the best-looking energy in the whole period, but the size is still tiny for a break that is fairly exposed. The wind is light and from the NNE, so it would be clean, but you are looking at ankle-biters.
From the 22nd of August onward, there is a run of days with some swell, but it is never surfable in a meaningful way. The period stays short, the winds are messy, and the combination never comes together. By the first of September, it’s back to tiny, onshore junk.
I’d say the only real highlight, and I’m being generous, is the morning of Thursday the 27th of August. With the wind completely glassy and that longer 12-second period, it might be worth a paddle just to be in the water, but don't expect much. Every other day is a skip.
For the whole 16-day run, there is no standout session. Not one.
Rusty.

Information about the Juno Pier Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Juno Pier provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Juno Pier can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Juno 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 (Juno 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 Juno 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.
Juno Pier is 6 km (4 miles) from Jupiter. If you plan a vacation in South Florida, look for hotels and other accommodation in Jupiter. Jupiter has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
