The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s cookin' at Lake Worth Pier.
Honestly, mate, it’s a flat spell. The whole 16-day stretch is a bit of a bummer for paddle surfing. The water’s a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, sittin’ at 87°F with a positive anomaly of 3°F, but that’s about the only excitement.
We kick off on Sunday the 6th with a tiny 0.3ft swell from the NE, period a weak 8 seconds, and cross-on SE wind at 6 mph. Combined energy is a measly (5) – there’s just nothing to work with. That early part of the week is pretty much the same story: small windswell in the 0.7ft to 1.0ft range, with the best chance for clean conditions on Tuesday morning the 8th when it goes glassy with a light N wind at 3 mph. But even then, the swell’s too small to get excited about.
Come Wednesday the 9th, we get a tiny bump – 2ft to 3ft from the NE, period still short at 8 seconds, but the combined energy climbs to 115 on Wednesday afternoon. Still, the onshore E wind at 9 mph keeps it messy. The rest of the week and into the second week stays in the 0.7ft to 2ft range, with periods mostly between 4 and 9 seconds. The wind shifts around, but it’s often onshore or cross-on, and the energy never really gets above 29.
The second week, from Saturday the 12th onwards, is more of the same – tiny, weak swells. By the 20th and 21st, the wind is pickin’ up to 16-19 mph from the ENE, and the swell is down to 0.7ft to 1ft with a period of 3 to 4 seconds. Combined energy drops to single digits (2 to 9). That’s not surf, that’s just wind chop. For a beach/pier setup like this, it’s looking more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
There’s no standout day. The best you could hope for is a very small window on Tuesday morning the 8th with clean, glassy conditions, but the swell is tiny. It’s a long wait for something that just isn’t coming. This is a blank run, plain and simple.
Rusty.

Information about the Lake Worth Pier Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Lake Worth Pier provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Lake Worth Pier can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Lake Worth 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 (Lake Worth 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 Lake Worth 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.
Lake Worth Pier is 2 km (1 miles) from Lake Worth. If you plan a vacation in South Florida, look for hotels and other accommodation in Lake Worth. Lake Worth has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
