Crowded for a Monday

Surf is hanging around this morning with some waist to maybe chest high waves. Sets are a bit larger with long lulls in between. Light NE breeze has put some texture on the water but nothing serious. Shape is not as good as yesterday; sets are lined up and mostly closing out with a few corners to be had if you're in the right spot. Kinda crowded for a Monday; I count 30 people in the line up with more arriving.

Have a good one

Nasty south wind

Afternoon conditions first thing in the morning. South wind has put some serious chop on the water this morning; almost blown out. Waist+ crumblers with poor shape to go with the poor conditions. Not much out there this morning except wind. Maybe conditions will improve as we move through the day, right?

Half the crowd

And maybe half the waves. 15 people out with fair surface conditions and waist to chest surf. Fair to poor shape. Long lulls and slim pickings between sets. And like yesterday the set waves are long lined up walls with a corner here and there. Some of the crew went up to SanO today. Can't wait to hear how it was there.

Have a good one

The swell is as large as its going to get

More consistency and size this morning. Chest to shoulder on the sets. Conditions are good but a slight surface crinkle has developed overnight. Fair shape, large crowd (35+) all lumped together on the reef. The best is on the inside and just south of the reef. Water is a tad cool by SoCal standards (63-64) so a full suit is what's happening.

Have a good one
