Jetty Surf Forecast for Week of March 31, 2025
Guys we have a deal with Island Fin Poke at Laurel and 41 in Nokomis (Publix Plaza). Designated days the waves are up they will have a special bowl for us surfers. Ask for the “its Pumping Bowl”, not on the menu, its a $10 premium ingredient bowl. The special is only good for the day/days the waves are good. We’ll let ya know what those days are.
Surfline, Swellinfo etc are good for general surf forecasting, what our Jetty Surf Forecast gives you is indepth knowledge for this local area. How the tides affect the surf locally, what the water conditions are, what the sandbars are doing, what the real water temp and feel is and when has been the better times to go out. Information that the general forecast sites have no way of knowing. Updated the page below to show the relevant buoys that affect our areas and a few secret cams.
Weekly surf report: Been super busy at work but we’ve had a nice run of waves. Looks like Saturday is our next wave event. Another wind event with possibly lighter and more northerly winds in the morning. Then the wind is blasting all day. Don’t expect anything great but could be a window in the morning where the conditions are better. The afternoon looks to have some strong northwest wind but it should be in the waist plus range. Sunday leftovers thigh high and fading but clean.
Weekly Gulf Surf Forecast:
Monday: Nada
Tuesday: waist plus
Wednesday: nope
Thursday: nothing
Friday: building to knee high late
Sat: waist plus
Sun: thigh fading waves
*Prepare accordingly and forecast *subject to change

Relevant WFLA forecast buoys
Read the buoy data. These are the buoys we use to forecast waves for West Florida, you can get the data below. When the swell and period heights elevate from the northern, western or southern buoys the waves will eventually make it to us depending on the pace of the swell.
The waves follow the wind, check long range wind forecast on Windy charts below. Check real time wind data by checking the buoys and watch the swell heights follow. There are many buoys that only record wind so check those out too by clicking the map below, “select region” will be on the top right of the map, select “Gulf of Mexico (East) Florida” then click whatever buoy your heart desires.
Buoy numbers above correspond to the buoys below
