Today

E swell sets up small knee-thigh high surf with favorable AM winds/conditions.

Leftover E swell is down from days prior but we'll see another clean morning window with offshore winds. The early low tide isn't ideal, so I'd look around the incoming. Easing but still rideable for the midday and PM, and onshore southerly winds increase for added texture.

Cape Romain Surf Guide

Cape Romain is the most exposed spot on the South Carolina coast. Before venturing to Bulls or Cape Romain, it's probably a good idea to let the Coast Guard know...in case you go missing. This entire area is characterized by vast stretches of salt marsh and wooded maritime islands.

This spit of sand/beachbreak is only accessible by boat, and it does get surf that the rest of the state doesn't see. Works on all swells and is especially well-exposed to hurricane energy.
