This forecast is using the low resolution swell data that was available on the website before the release of this new version. We feel the newer data set offers a better forecast but this version may be useful to those who built a detailed understanding of the relationship between the old forecast and the wave on the beach or to compare with the new model.

Swell from these wavebuoys might not reach this beach. This is intended as a general overview of swell running in the area. Click a buoy for detailed location information.

About this Surf Forecast

The surf at Jekyll Island is highly correlated to the tide. The long, shallow, sand bottom absorbs wave energy dramatically. Any swell becomes most ridable in the hour or two just before (preferred) or just after high tide.
