The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s on offer for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a real flat spell for Tybee Pier. We’ve got nothing but tiny, weak energy for the entire 16-day window. The first chance to even get out there comes on Monday, July 27th, but it’s pretty grim. We’re looking at a tiny 1 foot of swell from the ESE with a short period of 8 seconds, and the water is a balmy 87°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year. The cross-shore wind from the NE at 6 mph won’t help either. The combined energy is a measly 17 (weak), and the waves are just poor. This stretch of nothing goes on for days.
The rest of the week is more of the same. Tuesday, July 28th, sees a tiny 0.7 foot to 1 foot swell with short periods and messy cross-shore winds. The whole pattern is just tiny, weak, and wind-affected. There’s a brief moment of glassy conditions on the morning of Friday, July 31st, but the swell is only 1 feet from the SE—still too small to do anything with. The energy is only 15 (weak).
We finally see a tiny bump of energy on the morning of Monday, August 3rd, with a combined energy of 62 (still weak) and a 2 foot swell from the ESE. The wind is clean with a light cross-offshore from the SW at 9 mph, and the wave comment says “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.” That’s the best of the run, but it’s hardly a standout. The swell is still small and the period is a short 7 seconds.
From there, it’s back to the same story: tiny swells, short periods, and mostly onshore or cross-shore winds. The energy never breaks into the triple digits. The whole second week is a write-off for any real surf. The wind is frequently cross-on or onshore, and the swell is consistently under 2 feet with periods of 4 to 7 seconds. There’s nothing here for a surfer to get excited about.
If you’re after a paddle, you’re out of luck. This setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer if the wind picks up, but for surfing, it’s a long, flat wait.
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.
