Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it for our local stretch.
Honestly, it’s a grim picture for the next couple of weeks. We’ve got a solid 16-day forecast window, but there’s not a single decent wave on offer at Lake Worth Pier. The whole period is a write-off for paddle surfing. Expect a long, blank run with no real recommendations.
The main issue is that we’re stuck with weak, short-period windswell from the ESE and SE, barely nudging 0.7ft to 3ft. The combined wave energy is weak throughout, reading values between 10 and 50 (very low energy). To make matters worse, the wind is almost constantly a cross-onshore breeze, keeping the surface choppy and messy. There’s no offshore or glassy conditions to save it.
Let’s break it down day by day. Wednesday morning the 8th of July sees a tiny 0.7ft swell with a period of just 8 seconds, cross-on wind at 9 mph from the SE, and water temp at a warm 86°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. That afternoon, the swell bumps up to 2ft but the period drops to a shocking 4 seconds – basically wind chop. This pathetic pattern just repeats: Thursday the 9th, Friday the 10th, Saturday the 11th, all offering the same poor surf conditions with tiny waves and choppy, onshore winds.
The second week doesn’t offer any hope either. From Tuesday the 14th all the way through to Thursday the 23rd of July, it’s more of the same. Occasional bumps to 2ft or 3ft on the 16th and 17th (energy up to 50), but the wind stays cross-onshore and the period rarely gets above 5 seconds. Sunday the 19th morning has a light breeze, but the swell is still a pathetic 1ft.
To be blunt, there is nothing here to get excited about. If you’re desperate to get wet, this setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than someone with a surfboard. The water’s warm, but that’s about the only positive. Keep the board in the car, and let’s hope the forecasts change, because this area tends not to stay this flat for too long.
Rusty.

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.
