South Florida Beach Forecast: High Surf, Rip Currents, and Sunny Skies for Columbus Day Weekend
Surf's up, beach lovers! Get ready for a sun-soaked Columbus Day weekend with some serious coastal conditions along South Florida's stunning shorelines.
Palm Beach is bringing the drama with gnarly 3 to 4 foot waves today and solid 2 to 3 foot swells for Columbus Day. Surfers and swimmers take note - the rip current risk is HIGH, so stay alert and respect the ocean's power. The water's sitting pretty in the lower 80s, perfect for cooling off under blazing sunshine and a very high UV index.
Winds will be cruising from the northwest around 5 mph today, shifting to a light north breeze. Tide watchers can catch the low at Lake Worth Pier around 6:35 AM, with a high tide rolling in at 1:11 PM. Sunrise kicks off the day at 7:18 AM, with sunset painting the sky at 6:56 PM.
Heading south to Fort Lauderdale and Miami, the scene looks a bit calmer with surf heights hugging the 1-foot or less range. Today's rip current risk remains high, but Columbus Day drops to moderate. Expect consistent sunny skies and mid-80s temperatures that'll have you reaching for sunscreen and beach gear.
Naples and Marco Island are serving up the most mellow maritime mood with minimal wave action and low rip current risks. Locals and visitors can expect a classic Florida beach day - sunny, warm, with north winds around 5 mph.
Ocean safety pro tip: Even with low wave heights, always swim near a lifeguard and pay attention to local conditions. Stay hydrated, protect your skin, and enjoy the beautiful South Florida coastline!
