The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the menu for our local stretch.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – it’s a grim picture. The whole 16-day window is one long, flat spell. We’re looking at a solid run of nothing much worth paddling out for. The forecast starts with a total blank, and honestly, it doesn't get any better.
We're talking about Lake Worth Pier. This is a beach/pier setup, and it’s looking like a write-off from Monday, August 3rd, right through to Tuesday, August 18th. The swell is tiny, barely a ripple, with heights sitting at a pathetic 0.7 ft to maybe 4 ft at the very best. The period on that swell is short, between 4 and 8 seconds, so it’s all wind slop and no push. The wind is a constant problem too – mostly cross-onshore from the ESE or SE, keeping the surface chopped up and messy. The combined swell energy is weak, barely cracking 89 (moderate energy) on a couple of days, but it’s all for nothing.
The water temp is sitting at a warm 86°, which is pretty normal for the time of year, but you won't be feeling it on a wave. Every single day in the forecast is described as "poor surf conditions" with a score of zero out of ten. There are no standouts, no hidden gems, nothing. The forecast confidence is high for the near term because it's consistently bad, and the long range doesn't offer any hope either.
Honestly, if you're desperate for a session, you’d be better off looking for a lake. This setup is so flat and weak, it might actually be more interesting for a kite surfer than someone with a paddle. There’s just nothing doing here.
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.
