The Lowdown
Alright, let’s chew the fat on this Vero Beach Pier forecast. For a stretch this long, it’s looking pretty grim for the surf.
Plain and simple, we have a big ol' dry spell. The first week and a half is a total bust. The wave energy is just a whisper, with the combined energy only getting into the triple digits once, and even then, it's barely there.
Let’s break down the one small blip of hope. On Friday, August 7th, we see the best swell of the period at about 4 feet from the east. The energy hits 102, but that’s still considered weak. The period is only 6 to 7 seconds, so it's gonna be bouncy, wind-affected junk. The wind is onshore from the east, so it’s going to look ugly.
Your best bet is the morning of Saturday, August 15th. That morning serves up a small 2 foot wave from the east-southeast. The size is nothing to write home about, but the wind will be light from the south-southwest, giving us a clean, glassy surface with a cross-off breeze. It’s the only window of truly clean conditions in the whole 16 days. Expect the lot to be busier than usual because of the lack of any other options.
We see a morning on Sunday, August 16th, with a light offshore wind from the west-southwest, but the swell is a pathetic 0.7 of a foot. You won't even get wet.
For a break like this, a long stretch of nothing on the forecast is pretty standard. It never stays this flat for long, but this run is a test of patience. If you see a kite in the air, they're the only ones having fun.

Information about the Vero Beach Pier Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Vero Beach Pier provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Vero Beach Pier can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Vero Beach 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.

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 Vero Beach 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.
