Today

Easing but still good size surf off swell mix. Light AM wind, PM onshores mellow & surfable all day

Dawn to 10:00AM: Selective S swell gradually eases, along with a decent pulse of NW swell. The top S exposed spots - mainly north of Morro Bay - are still in the shoulder-head high+ range, while top spots are overhead. Enough NW swell mixing in for the odd beachbreak corner. Light wind and generally smooth.

Afternoon Outlook: Surf will slowly dip during the day. Manageable W wind peaks mid afternoon then eases into the evening.
