The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you—right now, we are in a flat spell. This 16-day window is a tough one for surfers. The data shows a long stretch of tiny, mostly unrideable conditions, and there’s no real standout or even a decent session on the cards.
Looking at the entire period, the swell is practically non-existent for the first two weeks. From July 29th right through to around August 13th, the wave heights barely tickle 3 ft, and even then, the winds are mostly onshore or cross-onshore, which will leave the surface choppy and messy. The water temp is sitting at a balmy 86°, which is about average for the time of year, so at least you won't be cold while you're sitting there waiting for nothing.
There’s a tiny pulse around August 7th and 8th where the combined swell energy bumps up to 118, which is still only a moderate amount of energy. The swell direction swings to the ENE with a period around 8-9 seconds. That is very short-period, wind-driven stuff. It won’t have any shape or power. Lake Worth Pier is the only spot listed, and it’s a beach/pier setup. With onshore winds and weak, short-period swell, this is honestly looking more like a kiteboarding session than a surf session. It’s not going to be good for paddling.
Because of the persistent poor quality and the fact that the break is fairly consistent, meaning it *can* pick up swell, this blank run is just a bad run of luck. Forecasts can change, but right now there is nothing to get excited about. Save your wax.

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.
