Chris Borg •Today
Rideable surf locally today, while solid Southern Hemi swell is pumping at exposures outside SB.
Dawn to 10:00AM: Continued run of shorter-period NW swell maintains knee-thigh-waist high zone waves locally, with better sets at best breaks. Most favorable winds/tide in the morning.
Afternoon Outlook: Similar size, manageable SSW afternoon onshores.
For spots outside of SB, a healthy, long-period SSW Southern Hemi is good for widespread shoulder to head high+ surf at exposures, while better breaks are overhead. Worth a road trip.

Since it is so inconsistent, there's a whole crew of style-conscious locals who get their pick of the litter. Read more
