Peter Aquilina •Today
Great morning of clean, head high surf. Easing under N winds later.
Despite easing swell we should see some reasonable consistency and waves lingering in the chest to OH-high waves at exposed beaches. Make the most of a morning session, best shape and size throughout the AM. There‘s gentle NW winds approaching dawn this morning ahead of the day N-NE develop later. Open beaches remain the pick while more sheltered locations become increasingly slow.
