Today
Surf edges up today as fresh swell creeps in this afternoon. Winds stay on the lighter side.
Afternoon Outlook: Old SSW swell and minor NW swell mix for mainly thigh to stomach high waves at southerly exposures mid day, as top breaks hit head high. A new round of long-period SSW Southerly Hemi slowly rises for chest-head high+ surf at focal points, showing largest late. Light+ SSW onshores for a little afternoon lump. Evening high tide bogs down tide sensitive breaks.
