Kevin Wallis •Today
Good day of waves, conditions look best in the AM. PM onshores manageable, evening clean up.
SSW swell tops out for waist-chest high waves at average spots. Better breaks head-high with some overhead sets in the mix at standouts.

Light wind early this AM and clean. Light+ SW wind later this AM and this PM, wind lightens this evening.
