Table - best surf conditions forecast for Ormond Beach Pier over the next 16 days.
Hey, Rusty here. To be honest, Ormond Beach Pier is a total write-off across the entire 16-day window. There’s no real surf worth paddling out for – the whole stretch from July 12 right through to July 27 is just tiny, weak swells and poor conditions. The water’s sitting at 84°F, which is about average for this time of year, so at least it’s warm. The only moment that even comes close to being surfable is Monday July 13 afternoon: a 2ft SE swell (period 8s) with glassy NNW wind at 3 mph, giving clean but very ordinary waves. Combined energy is only 86 (weak). After that, it’s back to 0.7–1ft dribbles with cross-shore breezes and choppy textures. The break is usually fairly consistent, so this flat spell is a bit of a rarity – forecasts can shift, but for now, leave the boards home. – Rusty

Information about the Ormond Beach Pier Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Ormond Beach Pier provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Ormond Beach Pier can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Ormond Beach 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 (Ormond Beach 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 Ormond Beach 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.
Ormond Beach Pier is 3 km (2 miles) from the city of Daytona Beach. If you plan a vacation in North Florida, look for hotels and other accommodation in Daytona Beach. Daytona Beach has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
