Frequently asked
Is Pompano Pier Southside working right now?
As of the latest buoy reading (2026-08-26 10:00 UTC), Pompano Pier Southside is fair: the live 2–4 ft short-period swell from the NE matches its ideal NE direction and is in its ideal size range, and the wind is strong from the E.
Is Pompano Pier Southside good for beginners?
Pompano Pier Southside is best for improving and intermediate surfers — it's most often good on 2–4 ft surf, manageable on its smaller days but a step up from true beginner conditions. It also tends to be best when the wind is up, which adds chop, so pick a calmer day while you're still learning. Conditions change daily, so always check the live report on this page before paddling out.
What's the best tide for Pompano Pier Southside?
Pompano Pier Southside tends to be best on a high outgoing tide — the tide stage LazySurfer surfers have rated highest here. Tide changes how the swell breaks, so check the two-day tide chart on this page for today's high and low times.
What swell direction is best for Pompano Pier Southside?
The best swell direction for Pompano Pier Southside is from the northeast (NE). Swell arriving from the northeast lines up best with how this break faces, which is when LazySurfer surfers have rated it highest.
What's the best wind for Pompano Pier Southside?
Pompano Pier Southside is most often good with strong wind from the southeast (SE) — the wind LazySurfer surfers logged on their best-rated sessions here. Wind direction grooms or chops the wave face, so check the live report for current wind.
Where does LazySurfer's surf data for Pompano Pier Southside come from?
LazySurfer reads public data directly from NOAA's National Data Buoy Center and the National Weather Service — the nearest NDBC wave buoy (station 41122) and the nearest NOAA tide station (South Port Everglades, ICWW). The same raw readings NOAA publishes, with no proprietary smoothing.
Does LazySurfer predict whether Pompano Pier Southside is good for me?
Yes. LazySurfer trains a custom deep-learning model — a PyTorch neural network with per-user embeddings, retrained weekly on real logged surf sessions from the LazySurfer community — to predict the 1-to-5 star rating you personally would give, rather than a single average rating for everyone.
