Today

Smaller day of waves with old and new SSW swell primary. Clean start, onshore pick up mid-AM.

Dawn to 10am: Clean start with a few little waves to track down. Average zones are knee-waist high and best on the small wave gear. Summer standouts in the region still have some chest high waves in the mix. A little soft/sluggish on the early high tide with a few open corners. Spots with some structure best. A little crumble likely to pick up late AM into midday.

Afternoon Outlook: More lump shows by mid-afternoon, but looks pretty manageable through the end of the day.
