Today

Knee high surf with poor shape/form. SSW winds increase, semi-clean early.

Dawn-Midday Outlook: Mostly a weak mix of ESE swell and local windswell, and not much surf to target. Surf is topping out around knee high and weak. Textured but semi-clean through the mid morning tide push.

Afternoon Outlook: Notch stronger SSW/S winds in the PM set up semi choppy to choppy conditions. Surf stays weak too so nothing to target.

Kiawah Island/Seabrook Island Surf Guide

These are exclusive residential/resort beaches to the south of Charleston. Kiawah can get good surf on strong S swells, particularly at Sandy Point on the north end of the island. The south end of the island, particularly Seabrook, can occasionally be blocked from southeasterly swells by offshore sandbars, from outflow from the North Edisto River and from northeast swells by Sandy Point. For public beach access, head towards the Fresh Fields shopping center and the Beachwalker County Park. Read more
