The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this stretch of the Cocoa Beach area is lookin’ pretty flat and sad for the next 16 days. We’ve got a solid run of nothing much to get excited about.
Right now, through Monday the 3rd of August, we’re staring at tiny, weak leftovers. Lori Wilson Park is seeing a feeble 1 ft of swell from the ESE, with a short period of 8 seconds and a combined energy of only 20 (weak). The water is a warm 84°F with no anomaly – about average for this time of year. The wind is a cross-offshore from the SW, so the surface is clean, but there’s just no power to work with. It’s a flat spell.
Tuesday the 4th and Wednesday the 5th are more of the same – 2 ft to 1 ft of windswell, periods dropping to 7 seconds, and energy barely ticking up to 44 at best. The wind flips onshore from the E on Wednesday, messing up what little shape there is. Thursday the 6th stays small with a risk of thunderstorms adding to the misery.
Friday the 7th of August shows a little spike: the swell bumps to 4 ft in the morning, hitting 5 ft in the afternoon with the period still a short 7 seconds, but the combined energy jumps to 376 (moderate). The problem? The wind is straight onshore from the E at 9-12 mph, making it a choppy, bumpy mess. The surf quality is still poor. This setup is more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing if you’re into that.
Saturday the 8th and Sunday the 9th are messy with onshore winds and dropping swell, back to 3 ft or less. From Monday the 10th all the way through Tuesday the 18th of August, it’s a washout: swell heights stay between 0.7 ft and 2 ft, periods are short (4-8 seconds), and energy values are mostly in the teens or single digits. Winds are a mix of cross and cross-onshore, never giving us a clean window.
The only tiny glimmer is on Friday morning the 14th of August, when we get a glassy moment with 1 ft from the ESE and a 5-second period. But at 20 energy, it’s barely a ripple. Then Saturday the 15th and Sunday the 16th see a return of cross-offshore winds from the SSW, but the swell is only 1.0 ft to 1 ft – not enough to ride.
Honestly, there’s no standout day here. The best you can hope for is a longboard session on the glassy Friday morning or a clean Sunday morning on the 16th, but the swell is just too small. For the rest of the 16-day window, don’t bother paddling out unless you’re desperate for a float.
