Today

Fun surf on tap this morning, even with a little crumble. Lumpier waves this afternoon.

Dawn-10am: Old SW swell eases as SSW swell edges up, keeping waist-chest-shoulder high waves rolling in while top breaks hit head high to overhead+, shape improving after the draining early morning low tide fills in for a while.

Light NW onshores most of the morning for a semi-clean start. More crumble showing as the tide turns around later AM.

Afternoon Outlook: Moderate westerly onshores for the afternoon as size tapers down a bit further.
