South Los Angeles Forecast
Matt Kibby •Today
Lumpy, rideable surf in the thigh-chest high range for better zones. Onshores pick up mid-PM.
Afternoon Outlook: Size pulses up a bit more as the Elida swell trends more SSW-SW and some Southern Hemi SW-SSW mix fills in. Look for the better breaks in the northern half of the South Bay to see decent size (waist-chest high), with standouts pushing head high. Smaller from around Hermosa south, mostly waist high and below.
Bumpy as moderate trending breezy WSW onshores build, staying low quality through the end of the day.

All spots south of Manhattan are increasingly shadowed from south/summer swell and rely primarily on southwest, west, and northwest swells. Marine Street is usually the best south swell spot in Manhattan. The beachbreaks are usually walled with some better-shaped waves near the Manhattan Pier.
