Today

Knee-knee+ and up to thigh high surf. Onshore winds through the day.

Not looking like a great pattern for surf. We see mostly shorter period SW windswell/chop with no real shape/form. Surf is rideable through the day but conditions are mostly poor. Not much that is worthwhile.

Cape Romain Surf Guide

Cape Romain is the most exposed spot on the South Carolina coast. Before venturing to Bulls or Cape Romain, it's probably a good idea to let the Coast Guard know...in case you go missing. This entire area is characterized by vast stretches of salt marsh and wooded maritime islands.

This spit of sand/beachbreak is only accessible by boat, and it does get surf that the rest of the state doesn't see. Works on all swells and is especially well-exposed to hurricane energy.
