The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let me tell you about the surf ahead for Tybee Pier. Honestly, the next two and a half weeks are looking pretty grim for us. We’re staring down a long stretch of flat, messy, or just plain small waves.
The first solid recommendation doesn’t show up until the morning of Sunday, September 20th. Before that, we’ve got about 12 days of nothing worth paddling out for. The water’s sitting at a very warm 86°F , which is much warmer than normal for this time of year—a full 4°F above average.
Now, for that Sunday morning on the 20th, the swell finally bumps up to 5 ft from the east-northeast (ENE), with a short period of 8 seconds. The energy is moderate (266). The winds are light and onshore from the east-southeast at 3 mph, offering a moment of clean-ish potential. But this is really the only blip on the radar, and it’s only a “marginal” call.
The breeze picks up that afternoon and stays messy through the following Monday and Tuesday. By Wednesday, September 23rd, there’s a brief window with glassy conditions in the morning and 3 ft from the east-southeast. It’s surfable but very ordinary.
Forget about any standout sessions. There’s no real quality on offer here—just the occasional pulse of short-period, wind-affected, onshore energy. Best to leave the board in the car for a while.
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.
