Today

Decent off-season NNW swell. Fun, generally clean surf and biggest day of the week.

Dawn-10am: Nice little pulse of NNW swell by June standards. Average breaks seeing waist-chest high surf, with top spots in the head high range. Strongest surf during the first half of the day. Fairly clean conditions with ENE trades.

Afternoon Outlook: Size slowly eases over the afternoon but continued waist-chest+ high surf all day. Trades stay up but direction looks pretty good: E-ENE. Likely a little bit of bump to the surf, but no complaints on a fun June swell.
