Today

Knee high E/SE swell blend eases. Light W winds early and decent conditions through the morning.

Dawn to Midday: Small but pretty clean surf this morning. It looks barely loggable, so you'll want a bigger board to make the most of it. We have the high tide now as well, so mind that if you are gonna try it. Winds trend gentle SSW/SW through the morning for increasing texture.

Afternoon Outlook: Winds trend light southerly for the afternoon, producing lightly textured but decent conditions. However, surf is very weak with not much to work with.
