The Lowdown
G’day, it’s Rusty. Let’s be real – this 16-day window for Naples Pier is a tough one. The whole run is flat or near-flat, with barely a ripple worth paddling for. The first few days barely have a pulse, and there’s a long, dry gap from the 2nd of August morning right through to the 6th of August afternoon where you’re lucky to see a knee-high wobble. It’s pretty much a write-off for any kind of decent surf.
Friday the 31st of July starts off with a tiny 1 foot swell from the west, period a weak 5 seconds, and the combined energy is just 4 – that’s practically nothing. Wind is onshore from the west at 9 mph, so it’s messy and poor. The afternoon gets even worse with a 1 foot west swell, period dropping to 3 seconds, energy down to 1, and a cross-onshore breeze making it choppy.
Saturday the 1st of August is a flat morning with zero energy. The afternoon brings a pathetic 0.7 feet from the WNW, period 5 seconds, energy at 2, and onshore wind. Not worth the drive.
There’s a long stretch from the 2nd of August through the 5th of August where the swell is either absent or so tiny it’s unrideable. Mornings are often glassy or clean, like on Tuesday the 4th of August morning with 3 mph south wind and glassy conditions, but the swell is a measly 0.7 feet from the south, period 3 seconds, energy 1. Wednesday the 5th of August has clean cross-off winds, but the swell is 0.3 feet – you’re just floating.
Thursday the 6th of August afternoon finally shows a slight bump: 2 feet from the south, period 3 seconds, energy 5. Winds are light and cross-off, so it’ll be clean, but it’s still tiny and weak. The best of a bad lot, but nothing to get excited about.
After that, the rest of the outlook from the 7th of August through the 15th of August is a desert. Swell is either absent or under 1 feet, with poor period and minimal energy. There are a few glassy mornings and clean cross-off afternoons, but without any swell, it’s just a flat, pretty lake. The water temp is about average for the time of year, no anomaly to speak of.
Honestly, this whole period is a non-event for surfing. The setup is more interesting for a kite surfer if any wind picks up, but for a paddle surfer, you’re better off finding another hobby for a fortnight.
Rusty.

Information about the Naples Pier Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Naples Pier provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Naples Pier can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Naples 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 (Naples 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 Naples 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.
Naples Pier is 8 km (5 miles) from Naples. If you plan a vacation in Gulf Coast, Florida, look for hotels and other accommodation in Naples. Naples has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
