The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s going on at Ormond Beach Pier.
Right now, it’s dead flat. We’re looking at a solid week of next to nothing – waves hanging around the 1 foot mark or smaller. The energy readings are all in the weak zone, barely hitting double digits for most of it.
Water temp is about normal for the season, sitting around 83°, so no surprises there.
Saturday, August 2nd shows a tiny pulse, maybe 2 to 2 feet out of the ESE at 8 seconds. The wind will be offshore from the WSW at 15 mph in the afternoon, cleaning it right up, but there’s just no power behind it.
Tuesday, August 4th afternoon is the first time we see any real energy, hitting 126 in the combined reading. Wave height is still only around 3 feet from the ESE at a short 7 seconds. The wind is light and cross-offshore, so the surface will be clean, but the waves themselves are nothing special.
Honestly, there is no standout session in this entire 16-day stretch. The best you can hope for is a clean, knee-high wave if the wind cooperates. For a break like this, which needs NE swell, we’re getting mostly ESE and E, so it’s just not lining up. Crowds are usually an issue here, but with this little action, you’ll have the place to yourself.
Forget about anything over 5 feet – it’s not showing up. Beginners won’t miss a thing. If you’re into kiting, you might find a few breezy afternoons, but for regular surfing, it’s a long, flat run.
Keep an eye on it, but don't expect much.
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.
