Today

Knee-thigh high surf with southerly winds and textured conditions this afternoon.

Midday: Easterly swell still offers a few weak but rideable waves in the knee-thigh high range at lunch. Southerly breezes adding some texture. Not flat, but pretty unremarkable.

Afternoon Outlook: Our easterly swell fades some in size and southerly winds develop resulting in lower quality surf for the second half of the day.
