READING THE SEA…

Is it worth a session at Fort Lauderdale?

At 0.2 m it's flatglassy and calm — great for swimming and paddleboarding, nothing to surf. The swell period is on the shorter side, so expect choppier, weaker surf than the height alone might imply. This is the open-sea figure — the wave that actually breaks at a given peak depends on the spot's shape and the state of the tide, so treat it as a steer, not a promise. The water is 29.7°C — balmy.
