Surf Report Comments

Wednesday, June 18

Reporter: T. Strange

Surf Reports comments:

6:50 am: The waves are looking a little smaller in size compared to yesterday. Wave size @ 1 foot, occasionally a little larger. The surface conditions are semi-glassy to glassy with light S winds early. The marine forecast is calling for SE winds at 10-15 knots this afternoon. On the local buoy our early wave height reading is 2.0 feet at 9 seconds the same in size to yesterdays 2.0 feet at 4 seconds,. You can see the surf conditions live on our cams page here.

7:45 am: Early morning photos are up in box #1 wit an awesome sunrise and very small looking waves early early. But the past few days we have experienced and incoming tide push, and the local buoy is telling us we will get one again today. So we should be some knee to up to waist high waves at key spots this monring. Most the waves will be closer to knee high and that’s even on sets. But again, some spots may catch this ‘hanging in there’ swell throughout the mid and late morning, as the tide pushes in

Quote Of The Day

“One of the greatest things about the sport of surfing is that you need only three things: your body, a surfboard, and a wave.”
