Daily Surf Report - 12/24/2011

Different day with same great weather. Big NW swell hitting and delivering good surf in town. Thank you Santa!

Currently 35F with clear and sunny skies. Light offshore winds and predicted temps to reach up to 60F through the weekend. New long period NW swell in the water but morning high tide is starting to soften it up. Still very rideable and will improve as tide heads low. Set your sights on later today through the afternoon as conditions will change for the better. A beautiful winter morning in Bolinas. Last day to shop for Christmas gifts.


Channel: Big NW swell producing solid waves chest to head high and very rippable on the deep bar. High tide still letting the swell in. Good lefts that are shortboardable today. Should get even better as tide swings low. Lots of surfers in the water. It's the holiday season so give a wave and get a wave. Plenty for everyone.

Patch: Inside waves are breaking best with the high tide in the waist high size. Outside lines holding up and hard to get into as they roll over in the deeper water. As tide goes out shape and rideability should improve. 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.
