Today

Still some fun corners on tap this afternoon with manageble lump. Points stay prett clean.

Afternoon Outlook: Blend of lingering SW swell and leftover SSW/S swell keeps the lights on, down slightly from yesterday. Still lots of waist to shoulder high waves, as top spots push head high. Bigger sets walled at the beachrbeaks with some decent corners on the in-betweeners. Points have cruisy lines.

Light W wind for manageable crumble early afternoon. More lump due mid/late PM outside of the sheltered points.

Topanga Beach Surf Guide

A very visible long, right point at the base of Topanga Canyon. Topanga can be a real workable wave with plenty of challenging sections, but it never matches the shape of its cousin, Malibu. Topanga will take any swell, but it's best on a big west. During the huge El Nino winter of 1982-'83, local Donnie Wilson picked off a ride from Topanga that connected all the way past Chart House -- a distance of more than 300 yards.
