Fun-sized surf as lully SSW swell tops out. Clean conditions for the morning tide push.
Dawn to 10am: Ok size all day but the sets are spaced out. Surf runs waist-stomach high for average zones. Better breaks are chest-shoulder high with standouts head high at times.

Afternoon Outlook: Lumpy afternoon outside of the sheltered points with moderate westerly onshores.
