Make sure to read the full region forecast it has more complete details on the incoming swell and regional conditions. Click here for the full forecast www.socalsurf.com.
Our blend of WNW-NW swell will back down slowly on Saturday…leaving the sets a bit inconsistent and the surf a little gutless as both the size and swell-periods decrease. S-SW swell (180-200) will continue to hold, showing mostly in North County, but ninja-ing into a few of the South County summer spots as well.
On Saturday most spots will average around waist-chest high on the sets…with some inconsistent bigger waves showing at the really good combo spots. The standout breaks will be more in the waist-shoulder high range with some occasional bigger waves pushing in on the lower tides.
Sunday we will have some more WNW-NW swell (285-300) mixing in with the fading energy from Saturday and the backing off S-SW swell. Size will be pretty much the same as Saturday but there will be a bit more punch to the swell…and the bigger sets should be a bit more consistent by Sunday afternoon as the WNW-NW’er fills in a bit more. Combo spots will continue to be the biggest/most-consistent.
Both days look pretty clean during the mornings. Expect light and variable winds for most spots and a few areas with some very light offshore flow. It looks like we will be fighting a bit of a marine layer…maybe even some patchy fog…so don’t be surprised if visibility isn’t always that good. The winds should stay on the light side through the afternoons on both Saturday and Sunday…but expect the sea-breeze to develop enough to driving some variable 10-12 knot onshore flow into the more exposed spots.
Here are the tides…
