Today

Up to waist high in the AM under SW winds. Short period SE swell filling in later under S/SE winds

Winds will freshen today out of the SSE pushing in some short period SE picking up wave heights in the later afternoon.

For the morning it will be still quite small, up to waist high for the more open beaches, though SW winds in the morning could be breezy so expect some cross shore texture along those open stretches. Sheltered spots cleanest, albeit smallest around knee high.

Open beaches deteriorate through the day under the SSE winds, generally cleanest at S ends.
