Daily Surf Report - 12/23/2011

Currently 36F with clear and sunny skies. Light offshore winds and predicted temps to reach up to 60F through the weekend. Still have a long period NW swell in the water but morning high tide is swamped it out right now. Has gotten better with receding tide throughout the day. Set your sights on later today through the afternoon as I expect conditions to change for the better. Still a beautiful morning in Bolinas. Oh yeah - only 2 days left to shop for Christmas.


Channel: High tide letting a few soft ones through more on the Stinson side of the Channel. Longer rights and shorter lefts that are mushy and about thigh to waist high on the inside. Slightly rideable on a longboard but expect improvement as the tide heads low.

Patch: Periodic waves here - probably the best shape currently. Breaking on the inside when it happens with waves about thigh high +. High tide covers the rocks so you can get in and ride your log here.


Limited Edition Surf Art posters are available in the shop. Numbered and signed by a Sonoma County surfer/artist/historian. Pick one up for the surfer in your family. Makes a great holiday gift and supports a local artist.



Just a reminder to pack your trash!!! PACK IT IN, PACK IT OUT. Respect the Beach.
