Summerville surf guide

Summerville is a long stretch of white sand beach that has a laid-back vibe, making it a pretty good spot for surfers. The beach runs for quite a way, providing a couple of different surf options at both ends. The south end is especially popular, commonly known for its rivermouth, which often shapes up some decent sand bars.

The surf here generally works well with a southeast swell, but you can also catch some waves with northeast and southwest swells. It handles swell sizes starting from around 2 feet (0.6 meters) and breaks over sand, which is good for surfers looking for a softer landing. The waves can come in both left and right, so there's something for everyone. For the best experience, the winds are usually preferable coming from the northwest, and you can surf the spot at low, mid, or high tide, giving you some flexibility based on the conditions.

Summerville can get busy, especially when the conditions are right. It’s a good idea to check out the local surf scene to get a feel for when to hit the water, as it can change quickly. Keep an eye on the tides and wind, and you'll be able to maximize your time in the water. Overall, it’s a solid spot for a surf session!

Wind certainty

Wind certainty tells you how much the weather models agree on the forecast.

  • High certainty: Models agree closely; forecast is reliable.
  • Medium certainty: Some disagreement; conditions may shift slightly.
  • Low certainty: Models diverge; treat forecast with caution.

We calculate this by comparing wind speed, gust and direction from multiple models (like GFS, ECMWF, Arome, and Harmonie) and seeing how closely they match. They are weighted, meaning that some models count more than others, depending on how good they are for a certain spot.

Forecast Cheat Sheet

Short on time? Focus on wave energy. It’s the best single metric to gauge how big and powerful the waves will be.

Click any table cell to jump to that forecast hour. The map will update with forecast arrows, so you can see if wind and swell direction are lining up.

Use the table sidebar to switch units for height and speed.

Log your surf sessions to compare forecasts with real sessions and sharpen future predictions.

On the map, click a metric label to bring that arrow to the front — handy when arrows overlap.

Models and Updates

Surfnerd blends multiple global and local wind and swell models using advanced interpolation and spatial techniques to create an "ensemble" forecast. Forecasts are refreshed hourly.

Surf Predictions

Our AI-driven algorithm scores surf quality, shown by green, orange, and gray dots. Each forecast hour is rated for wind, swell, and tide quality, then combined into an overall score. Here’s the scale:

Perfect
Good
Average
Bad or No Data

Session logs also feed the algorithm — the more you log, the smarter your forecasts get.

With Surfnerd, no more "you should have been here yesterday"
