Still holding on with chest+ and up to shoulder high surf off local windswell. ESE/SE winds.

The direction shifts a little more SE allowing for more size to work in for PCB but this is still smaller than western beaches. Worth a look since we are in the summer season with breaks from Destin and further west up into the chest high range. Continued moderate to fresh ESE winds favoring the west side of piers/jetties for best conditions.
