Alright folks, it’s Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – it’s a tough run ahead for the next couple of weeks. We’ve got Jupiter Inlet South Jetty to look at, and honestly, the swell window is looking pretty darn empty.

Right from the start, through the whole 16-day run, we are stuck with tiny surf and a lot of wind. The wave energy is weak at best, with numbers staying in the single or low double digits for most of the period. There are no standout sessions, no hidden gems, just a long stretch of small, messy conditions.

The first week is especially grim. Sunday the 5th kicks it off with a risk of thunderstorms, an onshore sea breeze, and a tiny 1 ft swell from the southeast at a short 4 seconds – just not doing anything for us. That pattern hangs around. Monday and Tuesday bring some glassy mornings, which is nice to look at, but the swell is a pathetic 0.3 ft to 0.7 ft. You’d be floating more than surfing. The afternoons get choppy with onshore winds picking up to 12 mph. The water's warm though, sitting at 85°, which is about average for this time of year, so at least you won't freeze.

We see a slight bump in combined energy around the 15th and 16th, but the swell height only gets to 2 ft from the northeast. That’s still a knee-high dribbler for the advanced crew only, and the winds are mostly cross or cross-off, so it’s not totally blown out, but there's just no power in the water. The second week, from the 11th onward, is much the same story. A few clean mornings here and there with offshore breezes, like Monday the 13th and Wednesday the 15th, but the swell is still 0.7 ft to 2 ft. It’s frustrating.

Bottom line: there’s nothing here to get excited about. If you’re a beginner, you might get a few ankle-biters on the glassy mornings. For anyone else, it’s a long flat spell where you’re better off waiting for the next system. The jetty needs a proper push of north-east swell to wake up, and we just don’t see it.

Hang in there. Forecasts can change.

A general guide to surfing at Jupiter Inlet South Jetty can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Jupiter Inlet South Jetty 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 (Jupiter Inlet South Jetty) 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 Jupiter Inlet South Jetty 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.
