Sheltered breaks will offer something for the floatier boards

Dawn-to-Midday: it's not howling this morning but WSW wind is still fairly breezy and conditions are bumpy and not that appealing at exposed breaks. Chest/head-high surf is there if you don't mind the onshore wind - sheltered beaches will offer a smaller, mellower wave for the floatier boards.

Afternoon Outlook: sheltered beaches the best bet for a cleaner wave this afternoon/evening. WSW wind never really gives up. Not perfect but Ok waves tucked in out of the wind.
