What swell direction is best for Pompano Pier Southside?

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.
