The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty, and I’m looking at the outlook for the next couple of weeks around Naples Pier. Gotta be straight with you—it’s looking pretty bleak. We’ve got a solid stretch of nothing happening, so let’s get into it.
Right off the bat, there’s no real surf on offer for the first few days. The whole period from Thursday the 13th through to the end of the month is a real struggle. We’re looking at a long, dry gap with barely a ripple. The only break on the cards is Naples Pier, a beach/pier setup that’s fairly exposed to the swell, but the problem is there’s just no swell to speak of.
The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing to get excited about. For most of this period, the wind is a mixed bag, but even when it’s clean, there’s no wave energy to work with. The combined energy values are all in the single digits or zero—weak as can be. We’re talking 1 ft max, and that’s from directions like WNW or SSW, with periods of 2 to 4 seconds. That’s just wind chop, not real surf. The wind is often cross-offshore or clean, but it doesn’t matter when there’s nothing to ride.
There is a tiny glimmer on Saturday the 15th afternoon—a 1 ft from the SSE with a 4-second period, but the energy is just 3, and it’s still labelled “poor surf conditions.” Not worth paddling out for. Same deal on the 17th afternoon with a 1 ft from the WNW and 18 mph winds—that’s just lumpy, choppy junk.
Honestly, through the entire 16-day window, there’s no standout. No solid swell, no real groundswell, just a whole lot of nothing. The inconsistency here is normal for this area during a flat spell, but it’s frustrating. For a beginner spot, even the tiny stuff is too small to bother with. If you’re a kiter, the stronger wind days might offer something, but for a surfer, leave the board at home.
Hang in there—forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a total write-off.

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.
