Alright, this is Rusty. Let’s talk about what’s happening at Jupiter Inlet South Jetty.

Right now, we’re looking at a pretty flat, quiet stretch ahead. The combined swell energy is weak, barely registering above 50 (53) at best, and most of the time it's down in the teens or single digits. That tells the story: there’s just no real push out there. The swell direction is mostly from the NE or SE, but the heights are tiny—0.7ft to 2ft—and the periods are short, mostly 4 to 7 seconds. That’s windswell, not groundswell, and it’s not going to shape up into anything worth paddling out for.

The forecast shows nothing but “poor surf conditions” for every single session through the entire 16-day window. There’s no standout day, no hidden gem. Friday morning, July 3rd has glassy conditions and a 2ft NE swell, but with that 7-second period and weak energy (53), it’s just not enough to get excited about. The wind turns onshore or cross-onshore almost every afternoon, chopping up what little swell there is.

Saturday, July 11th morning is glassy again, with a small 1.0ft ENE swell and a 10-second period. That’s a touch more period, but still tiny. Combined energy is only 33. It’s clean, but you’d be scratching for a ride.

Given the break is a beach/jetty setup, the swells are small and direction is mostly cross-or onshore, this is more of a time to wax the board and wait. There are no standout sessions. The crowds might show up anyway, but there’s nothing here to crowd for.

For beginners, the swell never gets above 5ft, so no worries there, but there's also almost nothing to surf. For experts, there’s no size or power to play with. The jetty might offer a little shape on the small ENE swells if the wind goes offshore, but even then, we’re talking knee-high at best.

Hang in there. It’s a flat spell, but it won’t stay this way forever. Forecasts can change.

Stay tuned,
Rusty

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.

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.
