Alright, I’ve had a good look at what’s on offer for the next 16 days here at Ormond Beach Pier. To be straight with you, it’s a tough stretch.

We’ve got a long gap of poor surf right at the start, running from July 3rd all the way through to July 8th. The waves are tiny, generally between 1.0ft and 2ft, with short periods and weak combined energy (never above 101). A few mornings are glassy or clean with offshore winds, but there’s just no power to make it worthwhile. It’s a flat spell, plain and simple.

The first flicker of real energy shows up on Thursday, July 9th in the afternoon. The combined swell energy jumps to 203, with a 3ft swell from the east-southeast at a 9-second period. But the wind blows cross-shore from the southeast at 12 mph, which is enough to mess up the shape. It’s still rated poor. Might be worth a look if you’re desperate, but it won’t be pretty.

Saturday the 11th afternoon sees the biggest swell of the whole forecast: a 3ft south-easterly swell at 8 seconds, with energy up to 167. But again, that onshore cross-wind at 16 mph from the southeast will chop it up. You’re looking at junky, weak waves.

The rest of the second week, from July 13th onwards, is more of the same. Tiny swell, mostly under 2ft, with moderate to fresh cross-shore winds. The wind state does go offshore on the morning of the 15th and 16th, but with a wave height of 1ft to 2ft and a period of 5 to 8 seconds (energy below 30), it’s barely a ripple.

There’s no standout session here. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so at least it’ll be comfortable while you’re sitting on a flat board. For anyone wanting to actually paddle into a wave, this 16-day window is a write-off. The consistent lack of swell means this is pretty normal for the area in this part of the season.

If you’ve got a kite and the wind is up, some of those afternoon cross-shore days might give you something to work with, but for a surfboard? I’d leave it at home.

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.
