Updates in hr min s Forecast update imminent
Right, let’s get into it. Tybee Pier ain’t exactly firing, but there’s a little window of clean waves for the real keen ones. The water's sitting at 85°, which is a touch warmer than normal for the time of year, so you can leave the steamer at home.
We start off with a real flat spell. The first few days are a write-off, with tiny, weak, short-period slop and cross-onshore winds making a mess of things. You won’t be missing much.
The first sign of life rolls in on Tuesday morning, the 7th of July. We’ve got some 3 ft swell from the south, but with a period of only 6 seconds, it’s all wind chop. The light cross-offshore breeze (10 km/h) will clean it up, so you’re looking at surfable but very ordinary conditions. The combined energy is only 84, so it’s weak.
Tuesday morning the 13th of July is where you want to be. It’s still small, with 2 ft from the southeast, but the period bumps up to 9 seconds, giving it a bit more shape. The wind goes offshore from the WNW at a gentle 15 km/h, making for clean, glassy lines. It’s surfable but ordinary, but compared to everything else, it’s the standout. The combined energy is weak at 47.
After that, it’s back to tiny dribble for days. There’s a hint of something bigger building toward the end of the window. Saturday afternoon the 18th of July sees the swell push up to 4 ft from the south, but with a period of only 5 seconds, it’s gonna be messy, and the cross-offshore wind will just keep it lumpy. Sunday the 19th of July has a bit more size, 4 ft from the SSE, but again, it’s short-period and the winds are messy with a risk of thunderstorms. The energy is still weak at 88.
The only real stand-out for a proper surf is Tuesday morning the 13th of July. It’s the cleanest and most refined of the lot. For the rest, if you’re a beginner, the 2 ft to 3 ft stuff is safe, but it’s not pretty. Because the waves are so small and weak, and the wind is often cross-shore, a lot of this setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer.

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.
