The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the menu for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, this is one of those stretches where you might be better off waxing the car than the board. We’ve got a long, flat, messy run ahead. The first real chance of anything surfable comes way down the line, around Saturday the 12th, but even that is a tiny whisper. After that, there’s another gap until Monday the 21st. So we’re looking at a lot of flat, blown-out days in between.
The only two days that even register as “surfable” are the morning of Saturday the 12th and then the whole day Monday the 21st and Tuesday the 22nd. None of these are standouts.
For Tybee Pier, the best bet is the morning of Saturday, September 12th. We’ve got a light offshore wind from the west, which will keep the surface clean. But the swell is tiny, only 2ft from the south, with weak energy (42). It’s a beginner-friendly size, but you’ll be hunting for anything to push you. Don’t expect much. It’s a small, clean, but very weak morning.
The other window is Monday, September 21st – the morning looks best with a light cross-offshore breeze from the southwest, keeping things clean again. Swell bumps up slightly to 3ft from the east, but the period is a short 6 seconds, so it’ll be a bit crumbly. The energy is still weak (86). Tuesday the 22nd is similar, with a bit more size (4ft) but the same short-period, weak-energy story. You can get wet, but the waves will be ordinary.
Water temp is sitting at a noticeably warm 85° for the first surfable day, a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.
Honestly, there’s nothing here that gets the heart pumping. The pick of a poor bunch is the clean but tiny morning of Saturday the 12th.
Stay patient, check the next forecast update, and don’t force it.

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.
