Miami is seeing a legitimately fun day on the water. A 3.3-foot swell arriving from 98 degrees east at a 10-second period means organised, purposeful energy pushing through the Atlantic breaks — not wind chop, not a shorebreak lottery. Shortboarders and fish riders should find defined peaks with actual sections to work, especially on a favourable low-tide bank.

The dominant 10-second sets are the standout feature today. A secondary 5-second period adds some chop between sets, so paddle timing matters — wait for the real ones and skip the junkers. Wind data wasn't captured in this morning's reading, so check local conditions before you head out: offshore or light wind on top of this swell would make for a genuinely clean session, while onshore wind will roughen the faces, though 10 seconds of period gives the swell enough push to hold shape regardless.

Water temperature is sitting at a very comfortable 81.3°F — rash guard and boardshorts, no wetsuit required. That alone makes the paddle-out an easy call. Check low-tide windows before you leave; a three-foot swell at 10 seconds can light up a steep low-tide bank, and Miami's breaks tend to reward that combination.

This is a quick, honest daily surf briefing covering wave height, swell direction and period, wind, water temperature, and overall surf quality for Miami Beach and the surrounding Atlantic coast — everything you need before you load up the board.
