Today

Clean start, lots of waves coming through this morning. Chest-head high+ from Fausto swell.

Dawn to 10am: Surf is up a notch from Fausto. Mid-period S swell looks good for widespread chest-shoulder high waves at better breaks, with top spots in North LA head high to overhead.

Afternoon Outlook: Breezy PM onshores return. Points the best option if you can't surf the AM window.
