Today
Surf dips today as swell mix eases, still fun zone. Winds on the lighter side, cleanest in the AM
Happy 4th!
Dawn to 10:00AM: Old SSW swell tapers off, as a little new WNW swell shows, for waves mainly running thigh-stomach-chest high range while best breaks see better sets. Draining negative low tide early AM, then incoming tide push gets an assist rest of the morning, while very light S winds puff up.
Afternoon Outlook: Surf size holds. Winds are light+ SSW onshores. Mid afternoon high tide bogs down tide sensitive breaks.
