Tim Kent •Today
A bit more SE swell. Still small, up to knee-thigh high, but loggable & clean most of the day.
Afternoon Outlook: Still knee+ high surf continuing early afternoon. Surf is slow for most zones as we come up on the higher tide. Conditions are clean and there are options for a couple log waves. A bit of southerly side texture may develop for some zones later in the day, but fairly clean for most still.

The north side of the pier has seen the most action lately, but between the south side and Curlew Street occasionally shines when the sand is right. Given the focus of the best sand typically isn't right up against the pier (which technically you need to be 300 feet from anyway), it is possible to score a fun, lightly attended session here from time to time.
