The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's get straight into it. Honestly, looking at the whole 16-day window for Tybee Pier, it's a tough stretch. We've got a lot of days with tiny, weak energy and the wind direction is just never really in our favor. The real kicker is that water temp is sitting at a balmy 85°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least the wait won't be chilly.
The first glimmer of something worth paddling out for isn't until Wednesday the 9th of September. We're looking at the morning session there. It’s not going to blow you away, with surfable waves coming in around 2 ft from the southeast. The energy is still pretty weak (96), but here’s the thing: the wind is light from the west-southwest, which is actually cross-offshore. That means clean faces. It’s the only time in the whole forecast that the stars align to give us anything remotely decent. It's tiny, but clean.
Before that, from now right through until the 8th of September, it's a total write-off. We're looking at a solid week and a half of flat, messy, or onshore slop. Swell heights barely crack 1 ft, periods are short, and combined energy is constantly below 100. It’s just not worth getting wet.
After that Wednesday the 9th, it drops right back into the same old pattern of small, weak swell and choppy, onshore winds for the rest of the run. There's simply nothing else on the cards that’s worth your time. It’s a bleak forecast, but it tends not to stay this poor forever. Keep an eye on it, but for now, maybe wax the longboard for a lake session or just enjoy the peace.
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.
