Today

Solid but easing surf, clean through the morning at exposures - some slight texture later.

Plenty of size on open coast, perhaps pushing 3x OH on the sets but generally around 2x OH and slowly easing into the afternoon.

Clean and groomed in the morning at exposed breaks with light to moderate E/NE winds, southern corners a bit more wind affected. Wind slowly trending more NE through the day but getting lighter later, a bit of slight texture / crumble feeding in to many spots, but not really having much affect on wave quality.
