The Lowdown
Alright, let me tell you how it’s looking for Ormond Beach Pier over the next couple of weeks. Honestly, it’s a pretty quiet stretch. We’ve got a long run of days where the swell is just too small to get excited about. From the 13th right through to the 25th of July, the waves are hanging around 0.7ft to 2ft, and the energy is low – mostly sitting between 10 and 29 (weak wave energy). It’s clean enough at times, with some nice offshore breezes, especially on the 20th, 21st, and 22nd, but with barely any swell to work with, it’s more of a paddle and a tan than a surf.
The first real flicker of something happens on the 26th of July – Sunday morning. We get a bit of a bump to 2ft from the east, with a period of 8 seconds. The energy creeps up to 53 (moderate wave energy), and we’ve got a gentle offshore wind from the southwest. It’s what I’d call surfable, but very ordinary. Still, if you’re desperate, it’s the best it’s been in a while. The water temp is about 83°F, which is pretty normal for the time of year.
That little pulse hangs around through the 27th and into the 28th, but it’s nothing to write home about. The 28th Tuesday afternoon sees a fresh cross-shore breeze from the southeast at 19 mph, which will chop things up. The swell is only 1ft anyway.
So, look – if you’re a kite surfer, the wind on the 28th might be more interesting. For paddle surfing, there’s just no standout session here. The best on offer is that Sunday the 26th morning, but even then, keep your expectations low. It’s a quiet spell for Ormond Beach Pier.
