UPDATED: OCT 28, 2026 — Wave Rewind: What a wild run! Victory at sea at its finest! Wind dropped off and it got pretty fun at the end of the day on Wednesday.

LOCAL SURFCAST:

Pressure gradient relaxes and wind comes down for a few days. But it will pick back up over the weekend. Waves come down but clean up Thursday, then windchop picks back up over the Halloween weekend. Also don't forget to set the clocks back! Looks like after work sesh's coming to an end as the sun will be setting around 5:30pm starting Sunday.

Daily surf forecast for the Palm Beaches and Treasure Coast:

THURSDAY29: Light wind and still some swell out there. Lighter wind south, stronger wind upcoast to the north. Waist to chest+, bigger upcoast but also choppier.
FRIDAY30: Waist high plus. Wind starts getting back on it. Wind ENE 10-15kts.
SATURDAY31: Waist-Chest high ENE windchop picks back up. Wind ENE 20kts.

SUNDAY01: Waist to chest high east windchop. Wind E 20kts.

MONDAY-TUESDAY02-03: KNee/waist high NE windchop. Upcoast could be fun with more swell and offshore winds.

LONG RANGE FORECAST: Could be some fun cleaner waves upcoast the first week of November. Models are still in disagreement though. Either way swell will remain most of the week on the Treasure coast and space coast with a lot less wind around. Palm Beach county will be small, maybe a knee high swell sticking around.
This winter looks to be quite active thanks to the el nino patterns that we get in the winter. As I mentioned before, el nino years bring a lot of swell but also bring a lot of wind with them. We can hope for quick clean ups once the pattern starts moving quickly. Stay Tuned!
