Chris Borg •Today
Waves picking up this afternoon as more swell moves in. Winds staying light.
Dawn to 10:00AM: Another good shot of long-period SSW Southern Hemi fills in, along with a secondary shorter-period NW swell, as old SSW swell winds down. Southerly exposures mainly running waist-shoulder high while top breaks are head high+. Favorable morning tide push after the early AM draining negative low tide. Winds are light/variable to light S.
Afternoon Outlook: Surf gradually picks up as more SSW swell shows. Light S -SSE wind much of the afternoon.

The Hook Surf Guide
Not a great wave, but a pretty wave. The Hook can be frustrating because it's tucked well inside the bay and is inconsistent on all but the biggest swells. On bigger swells, and particularly those rare macking S swells, the Hook transforms from a mediocre wave to a good wave.
