Fun and warm. Some onshore wind crumble/bump this PM but very manageable. Reefs slow this evenin

Afternoon Outlook: Mixed SW-SSW swell from a variety of sources and surf is playful for most and pretty good size for the best exposed breaks in the central part of the region. There is some W wind crumble on it but not bad at all.

High tide is pretty deep this evening and that will impact the reefs - get it in the earlier/mid afternoon if you can, or on the sunset session.

If you are looking for the PB Drive cams, they are now available here.
