The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty, and I’m staring at the Florida coast for the next couple of weeks. Honestly, it’s looking pretty flat and quiet for a while. The whole 16-day window is a rough one for surf, with only a few moments that are even worth mentioning.
The first real chance to get wet comes on Saturday, July 25th. We’ve got a tiny 2ft swell from the east, with a short period of 8 seconds, so you won’t be getting any power. The combined energy is weak at just 44. But the big positive here is the glassy conditions in the morning. That’s a rare treat for this spot, and it’ll make the small waves look a bit better than they are. The water is about average for this time of year. Don’t expect much, but it’s the cleanest you’ll see it.
From there, the rest of the week is a slog. Tuesday afternoon, July 29th, sees a bump in energy with a combined swell energy of 126, but it’s still a weak 3ft swell from the ESE. The wind is offshore from the WSW at 12 mph, keeping the surface clean. It’s surfable, but very ordinary.
The only other real standout is the morning of Saturday, August 1st. We’ll see a 2ft swell from the ESE, with a period of 9 seconds. The wind is offshore from the WSW at 12 mph, keeping it clean. The combined energy is 82, still weak. It’s not a big wave, but it’s the best of a bad bunch.
Honestly, if you’re looking for a proper surf, you’re out of luck. The swell is too small and the period is too short for any real punch. The consistent onshore and cross-shore winds will mess up what little shape there is most days. For a beach/jetty setup like this, with such small, weak swell and questionable wind, it might be more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer. The whole run is a bust, but it tends not to stay this poor for long, so keep an eye on the forecasts.
Signing off,
Rusty
