Today

Breezy conditions keep the surf chewed up into the evening. Decent size if you can find a corner.

Afternoon Outlook: SW Southern Hemi holds, old SSW tropical swell fades, a little nudge in NW windswell joins in. Shape is largely walled outside of the spots with structure. Summer exposures are waist-chest high. Fresh SSE/S tropical swell mainly passing by today. Breezy onshore wind make for poor surf quality throguh the back half of the day. It's rideable, but keep those expectations low.
