Santa Cruz Surf Forecast

Today

Easing but still solid surf, strongest on the early AM tide push. Clean AM, light crumble PM.

Dawn to 10:00AM: Long period S Southern Hemi swell is down a peg from Wednesday's peak, but still pumping head high to 1-2' overhead waves into decent exposures, while standouts are up to a few feet overhead. Light/variable early AM wind, shifts to a light S sea breeze by mid morning.

Afternoon Outlook: Surf will slowly taper off during the back half of the day but there's still plenty of size. Some crumble on it with WSW wind but very manageable with potential for evening glass off.
