Today

Fun zone surf continues as some new swell joins in. AM onshore crumble, breezier PM conditions.

Dawn-10am: SW Southern Hemi holds, old SSW tropical swell fades, a little nudge in NW windswell joins in, and some SSE Fausto swell starts to sneak in. That'll help shape at the beachbreaks.

Light WNW wind on tap first thing for textured conditions.

Afternoon Outlook: Moderate to breezy WSW/SW afternoon sea breeze.
