The Lowdown
Right then, let’s look at the outlook for Lake Worth Pier. I’ll be straight with you—this is a tough stretch. There’s not a single recommendation in the 16-day window, so all we can do is look at what’s on offer and where the wind’s at.
The forecast kicks off on Monday the 10th of August, and right away we’re looking at tiny, weak surf. Monday morning brings a 2ft swell out of the SE with a short 5-second period, giving us combined wave energy of just 28. That’s weak, and with a cross-onshore breeze, it’s choppy. It doesn’t improve through the week; Tuesday and Wednesday see the swell drop further to 0.7ft – 1ft, still with poor winds and poor conditions. Thursday and Friday are much the same story.
Saturday the 15th of August gives us a tiny bump: a 3ft SE swell with 5-second period and combined energy of 51. Still weak, still messy, and there’s a risk of thunderstorms. Not worth getting wet for.
There’s a moment of hope on Monday the 17th of August when the wind goes glassy in the morning—light ENE at 0 mph and flat calm. Swell is 2ft from the NE (8-second period), combined energy 49. That glassy window looks clean, but the swell is tiny and really lacks any push. It’s still considered poor surf.
From the 18th through to the 25th of August, it’s more of the same: small 0.7ft to 2ft swells, mostly short-period, cross-onshore winds, and combined energy staying below 70. The winds are rarely favourable, and even the odd lighter day still results in poor surf due to the lack of size. The break is fairly consistent in its inconsistency—there’s no real rideable swell the entire period.
Overall, for a spot like Lake Worth Pier, a blank run of two and a half weeks is normal for this time of year when the Atlantic is quiet. The water temperature is about average for August, nothing unusual. If you’re itching to get wet, the closest you’ll get to surfable is the glassy Monday morning on the 17th with the 2ft NE swell, but it’s strictly a longboard or a foamy day. For anything more, we’re waiting on a change in the pattern.
