Today

Knee-thigh high surf. Rideable waves but pretty weak. Light onshore winds.

Afternoon Outlook: Small but rideable surf with light onshore winds expected to persist, resulting in textured and semi bumpy conditions. Surf becomes a but more drained out/dumpy around the lower tide. Not great, but not bad for July 1st.
