Size stays pretty fun as SSW swell sticks around. Best to try and hit the early window.

SSW swell sticking around for knee-waist high surf, pushing chest-shoulder high for better breaks. Summer standouts have some sets pushing head-high+. Bit more of a tide window early in the AM before shape drains out, likely the best of the day, winds lightest then too.

It'll be tougher to take advantage of the tide rebound midday as onshores pick up and get lumpy before there's enough water for shape to improve significantly.

However, just as easily, onshore winds can shred the surf to uselessness. Read more
