I've seen bigger boat wakes. Ankle to calf high with glassy conditions. Some slightly larger set waves. Ebbing tide (0.7@ noon). Then back in to a 4.2 high at 4:30pm. Air temp about 10 degrees warmer but water temps still trying to find the bottom. About 5 people out.

Lumpy, chunky short period swell this morning. Knee to waist high with random corners scattered up and down the beach. Slightly tousled sea surface conditions with a very light mostly easterly breeze. Air temp is warmer than it has been but the water temps continue their downward spiral. Ebbing tide will work its' way down to a 2.4 low at 9:39am the back up to a 4.1 high at 2:30pm. Max flood current at 1pm. About 10 people out.

Short period due west wind swell fighting its way in against a middle high tide. Knee to waist high; shoulder on the sets. Shape is hit and miss with more consistency at Tres Palms, less so and smaller at the reef. Messy sea surface with fair conditions overall. No wind. Water temp in low 60's with an air temp of 50. 6.0 high tide at 10am then a -0.2 at 5pm. About 12 people out.

Trending down: water and air temps. Trending up: morning high tides. Surf? There, but hard to compete with 6 foot morning tides. Conditions are clean with knee to waist high surf; chest high on the sets. Wind is offshore and doing a good job of holding up those peaks and grooming wave faces. A little too good; waves aren't breaking till well inside and the tide is still rising (6.2 at 9:30am). So we have a beautiful morning with good conditions but mediocre surf. Low tide of -0.3 at 4:15pm. About a dozen people out.
