Alright, let’s lay it out plain. Looking at the next two weeks, we’re staring down a long, flat start. Nothing worth waxing up for until we get past the first week. The first real chance to surf is July 10th, so you’ve got a solid seven days of small, jumbled junk to sit through.
Ormond Beach Pier is the only game in town. Early on, it’s all tiny swell under 2 ft with onshore or cross-shore wind. There are moments of clean conditions on the 5th and 6th, but the waves are barely ankle-high at 1 ft. Not worth the paddle.
The standout, the one that breaks the lull, hits Saturday, July 11th afternoon. Swell pushes to 3 ft out of the ESE, with decent energy behind it (153). Wind goes light SSE, giving us clean, cross-off conditions. That’s your session right there. The morning of the 11th is clean too with 2 ft waves, but the afternoon has more power.
Before that, Friday morning, July 10th, offers a small taste: 2 ft waves, clean offshore from the SW, and the water is a warm 84°F, average for this time of year. It’s surfable, but barely.
After the 11th, it drops back to tiny, weak little dribbles for the rest of the outlook. July 16th morning bumps to 3 ft, but it’s cross-onshore and choppy – more of a blown-out windswell.
Crowds are always a possibility when there’s a wave, so expect a few folks out on the 11th.
So, here’s the call: a long wait, but the afternoon of July 11th is your best bet. The rest is best left for the beach chairs.

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.
