The Lowdown
Alright crew, Rusty here with the rundown on Lake Worth Pier. Gotta be honest, we are in the middle of a drought. There are no good surf options in this 16-day window, plain and simple. We are looking at a long stretch of nothing from Thursday the 20th of August all the way into the start of September. The swell is tiny, mostly ankle-to-knee high, and the wind keeps chewing it up. The energy just isn't there.
The only day that even raises an eyebrow is Friday the 4th of September. In the morning, we finally see a little life with a 4ft swell from the north-northeast. The energy reading pushes into the moderate zone at 173. It's a long period with a 9-second gap between waves, but the real kicker is the wind – it's forecast to be dead calm and glassy, giving us the cleanest surface we've seen in weeks. The water temp is a warm 87°, just about average for the season.
After two weeks of flatness, you might get a few crumbly waves. Don't expect a classic, just be grateful for something to sit on. It's a long shot, but that's all we've got.
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.

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.
