No, as far as I understand it, we're done riding there on weekends until after Labor Day. Its an annual tradition after all. You can hop a sea taxi boat to the flats however.

There is that, then again you would do better for waves further north anyway. Why not check out Ft. Pierce or Jupiter on Tuesday if you can fit it in? Although he wind is supposed to stay up longer further south, perhaps for much of the week, even Palm Beach might not be a bad prospect.

Hope it comes through. We had some great winds at the end of May three years ago. It would be nice to have it again!

It is here and it is rideable now! Why are we being treated in the forecasts to about a week of late "season" (such as it was) wind? Checkout this video cast:

Blowing about 16 kts. SSE between Delray and Dania. A stack of thermal squalls seems to be moving seaward from the Everglades. Grab some wind time if you can before the squalls come too close bringing gusts and lightning.

The afternoon sea breeze has been pumpin the last two days. Out from Noon-5 in Dania both days. Clear flat water and enough to have a good time.

11.5 Kahoona and a twin tip for reference.

16 kts. in Delray, squalls are moving side shore well off the coast for now. Sun is out, riding time!
