Lots of short period, lumpy waves. Lots of variety too; waist to chest to head to plus size surf. Poor shape; poor conditions. Moderate offshores blowing the tops off the surf but not helping much in the shape/ form department. Lots of whitewater too. In a word: junky. One person out at the reef; about 5 or so at Tres Palms. Tide is falling and will reach its 0.4 low around 10:30am. Then back up to a 3.7 high around 5:30pm. Max tide push (0.9kts) around 2:30pm.
Have a good one

Size uptick but not as clean and the swell period has shortened up. Waist to chest with some larger sets. More westerly swell so the shape is not what it was with that underlying south over the last few days. Light riffle on the water; no wind. Tide is rising to a 4.6 high at 10am then backing off to a 0.8 low at 3:30pm. Light crowd; only 10 people out.
Have a good one

Very clean. Very nice. Waist to shoulder high with some underlying south swell to add some of that famous DM shape to the lefts that are running down the reef. Some larger sets. Glassy sea surface conditions, no wind. Everyone is raving about their session. Guess it's good. 12 people out. Incoming tide (4.8 at 8:45am). Low tide shows up at 2:45pm; 0.3.
Have a good one

Lots and lots of waves. Surf? Not so much. Short period energy producing back to back to back head to overhead waves. Closed out and warbly for the most part. Not providing much in the way of rideable surf. Moderate sea surface chop, backwash and a whole lot of whitewater. Rough, very rough. Tide is high but on the way out to a 0.0 low at noon. Next high tide will be at 7pm (4.8). 2 people out.
Have a good one

Reporting from Terra Mar this morning. Waist to chest high wind swell surf with the perfect tide for TM. Surf is peaky at Middles; more lined up at Igors. Light SW breeze with just a hint of sea surface bump. Only 10 people out. Tide is on the way out to a 0.0 foot level at 11:30am then back up to a 4.1 high at 6:30pm.
Have a good one

If only the water quality was better. Some nice looking wind swell peaks cruising in this morning. Knee to waist high, decent taper and shoulders. But in my estimation water quality is still poor but should be tolerable by tomorrow. So in the meantime get out there and walk or run; a nice wide beach with sparkling new sand awaits. Tide is low (-0.6) right now. Next high tide is at 2pm (3.8 feet).
Have a good one

Bring your small wave gear. 1, maybe 2 feet at best. But there are some pop up peaks that offer a short, slow ride. Sea surface is glassy and the tide is rising. Overcast with scattered sprinkles. 7 people out. Tide will peak at 10am (5.8 feet) and beginning dropping out at 1:30pm with the low at 4pm (-0.3 feet).
Have a good one
