A bit more mellow but still some juice left. Clean conditions and a smaller crowd. Chest to shoulder with head high + sets. Fair to good shape; sets are mostly walled up, some nice left slides on the in between stuff. Enough of a lull to slide out after the sets, if you're crafty and speedy. 11th street is consistently larger and meatier. Another good surf day at 15th street. Tide is flowing in to a 4.8 at 10am and will the ebb to a 1.6 low at 3pm.

Another morning with a classic San Diego SW summer swell. Surf is consistently shoulder to head high; going plus on the sets. Shape is a tad walled up but if you know the reef at 15th street you can be in position for really nice, fat left hook. But you gotta wait for it. You and about 75 other people who have the same idea. Crowd is evenly spread out across all the line ups which is not good news for those of you who like the "secret" south reef take off zone. A little further south still, 11th street is larger and meaner. Looking to be in the 8-10 foot range; with another 50 or so scrapping for that. Tide is still flowing in to a 4.4 at 9:30am and then ebbing to a 1.8 at 2:30pm.

A very clean and at times large WSW swell this morning. Shoulder high is the norm with head high plus on the sets. Even larger at 11th street. Good to fair shape. Glassy conditions and a large crowd clumped together on the reef. The southern line up is not as crowded. This is a classic summer swell and if you can thread yourself through the crowd you're going to get at least a few really nice rides. Tide is high, ebbing to a 2.1 low at 1:30pm.

Wind! Moderate south wind is messing with conditions this morning. Moderate chop, crumbly weak surf. Knee to waist high zone. Somewhat larger on the sets. Dominate westerly swell, poor to poor + shape. Tide is low, flowing to a 4.6 high at 10:30am. About 15 people out. This guy says it better than I ever could.
