The Lowdown
Alright crew, Rusty here. Got to be honest with you, the surf outlook for the St. Augustine zone is a total bust for the next sixteen days. We're in a flat spell.
From now through the whole period, the pickings are as slim as they get. There's not a single session I'd recommend. For the first week, from Wednesday August 5th to Tuesday August 11th, we’re looking at tiny, weak swells. The combined swell energy is in the 20s, 30s, and 40s (weak energy), which tells you all you need to know. The wind is almost always onshore or cross-onshore, just ruining what little bump there is. Wednesday morning the 5th was glassy, but that swell was only 2ft with a 7-second period from the east. You'd be sitting out there on a millpond.
There’s a slight uptick on Sunday August 16th, with the combined energy hitting 124 (moderate energy) from the ESE and a 3ft swell. But before you get excited, the wind is a moderate cross-onshore from the southeast at 15 mph, making it a messy, choppy mess. That's about as good as it gets, and it's not good. Water temp is 82°, which is about 2° cooler than average, so it's a little cooler than you'd expect for August.
The second week is rinse and repeat: tiny, short-period east and southeast swells with onshore flow. A few mornings look clean or glassy—like the 13th, 14th, 17th, and 18th—but the swell is next to nothing. 0.7ft, 1ft, 2ft... it's a swimming pool. The best of a bad bunch might be that glassy Monday morning on the 17th with a 2ft ESE swell, but you're still going to be waiting a long time for a wave.
St Augustine Pier is a consistent, beginner-friendly wave, but right now there's just no energy in the water. This is one of those bone-dry stretches where the area just isn't producing. Hang tight, the forecast might change, but for now? Leave the board at home.
Rusty.

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 St Augustine 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.
