Tim Kent •Today
Smaller waist high range E swell mix from departing low pressure. Increasingly sideshore.
Midday: Smaller but rideable summer surf for the floaty boards off leftover E swell still at lunch. Light+ S winds and side textured conditions for most now. Still some thigh-waist high range surf, but you will want to target a break with some wind protection. Water is likely to cool off today.
Afternoon Outlook: Continued easing swell leftovers with increasing southerly breezes and textured conditions expected.
