The Lowdown
Right folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the next couple of weeks.
To be straight with you, the outlook is pretty grim. We’ve got a long stretch of nothing surfs up ahead. The first real chance to get wet doesn’t come until Monday the 15th of September, and even then, it’s a bit of a gamble. That’s a solid two-week gap with no recommendations, so don’t be holding your breath.
The only spot that has any kind of pulse is Tybee Pier. The water temp is sitting at 84°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you won’t be needing a thick suit.
Now, for the one day that might offer a paddle, Monday the 15th of September: The morning looks the pick. The wind is glassy, which is a huge plus, but the swell is a tiny 3 ft from the east, with a short period of 5 seconds. The combined wave energy is weak (45), so it’s going to be small and weak. The afternoon gets a bit of a sea breeze, messing up what little shape there is. This is strictly for the desperate or the beginner, as the swell is under 5 ft, and it’s a beach break that won't hold much form.
Honestly, the rest of the 16 days is a write-off. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, and the swell is tiny or non-existent. The setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. It’s a blank run, and for this area, that’s pretty normal. Forecasts can change, but for now, don’t bother waxing the board.
Rusty.

Information about the Tybee Pier Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Tybee Pier provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Tybee Pier can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Tybee 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 (Tybee 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 Tybee 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.
