Damn internet! Swell predictions have lured 50 or more souls out into the water this morning. The surf is, in fact, larger but so is the tide. Inconsistency (the signature of south swells) is also plaguing the line up. Conditions are clean, the sun is out and the wind is down. Sets are in the waist high range and with a little local knowledge one can thread through the crowd and pick off a nice peak. For any length of ride though you have to stare down that shallow, shallow shore break and just go for it. 5.4 high tide at 9:30am ebbing to a 1.0 low at 3pm.

A slight increase in size, but still not much more than knee high surf this morning. Breaking very close in and in shallow water. Glassy conditions, no wind with 12 people out. So, not much in the way of surf but I'm heading out for a near shore paddle down and back up the coast. Tide is flowing in to a 4.9 high at 9am and then ebbing to a 1.9 low at 2pm.

Another day of glassy but flat conditions. Ankle high shore break is about the best you'll see; and those are the sets! No wind, light overcast and zero crowd. Actually there are two people out. But instead of sitting on their boards waiting for waves they are standing next to their boards in knee deep water; no paddle take offs. 4.5 high tide in about an hour, low tide shows up at 1:30pm (2.0).

Very clean; very small. Ankle to knee high shore break surf this morning. Glassy conditions although a NW breeze is swirling around here and there. Looks like a great day for an ocean swim or snorkeling or paddle boarding or kayaking. And there are 15 people sitting on their boards in front of the reef that believe surfing should be on that list too.

Have a good one
