Today

Bumpy this afternoon but not as bad as earlier in week. Fun to mid size surf, slowly easing.

Dawn to 10am: Drained to start the morning, low tide at 6:52am. Worth waiting on the tide push mid-morning for most spots. Blend of holding SW swell and leftover SSW/S swell keeps the lights on, chest-shoulder high with better breaks pushing head-high to overhead.

Early window is pretty clean. Mid to later AM on the tide push looks reasonably clean w/ light onshore chatter.

Afternoon Outlook: Size tapers down a bit further, building W wind expected for the afternoon.
