North San Diego Forecast
Matt Kibby •Today
Strong SSW swell builds all day. Maxes out most beachbreaks, reefs generally best. Clean AM.
Dawn-10am: Widespread head high surf can be expected, even on the more southerly angled swell. Good spots are a couple to a few feet overhead and standouts in the far north county are up to 2x overhead. Powerful with lots of current at open beachbreaks. Generally clean in the AM with wind light/variable.
Afternoon Outlook: Swell eventually peaks, standouts far north county push 2x overhead+. Onshores mainly mellow into the PM - some crumble but not bad. Partial evening clean up possible.

Seaside Reef Surf Guide
Seaside Reef is predominantly a left that can suck out on the takeoff, then flatten out on the shoulder before reforming into a quick and whackable shorebreak. The right off the peak is much softer, but with a bit of effort, it can be milked along to the same inside section. On extreme low tides, the left will produce some serious tubes. On days without much swell and a high tide, the inside shorebreak can be a fun option. Read more
