Today

ENE swell pushes through some more decent surf. Best at sheltered beaks under the onshores PM.

Afternoon Update:
ENE swell pulses continue, delivering chest- to overhead surf at the better points and exposed breaks. The open beaches are onshore under the ESE winds and less overall quality than the points. Hit the sheltered points for cleanest conditions if surfing this afternoon.

INCOMING: Trade swell serves up fun surf for points
