Well attended morning line up with 15+ surfers in the Channel. Still some surf to ride as well. Sun is on the way and it it supposed to hit triple digits temp wise inland this weekend so the beach is the place to be. It's currently 55 degrees, very foggy in town with no wind and should warm up again and turn into a nice beach day. Sun came out around noon yesterday. There are small and smooth rideable waves today and longboards are the best call. It's another excellent day for beginners and all points in-between.

Channel: Smooth, glassy and waist high + in size. Somewhat crowded but enough little peaks popping up waves that there is plenty to go around. Still good to practice proper surf etiquette and let the deeper surfer have the wave. It's still working well here from Sea Drift, across the middle bar all-the-way-through the Groin pole-to-Boat ramp. Smooth lefts that still have some push to get you moving up and down the face. Come get wet.


Patch: Heavy fog but a few surfers are on it and enjoying smooth but smooth rights in the thigh high size. Looks to be breaking outside the meeting rock and rideable to the inside reform. Tides are good here for most of the day so avoid the crowd and get some rides in the fog.


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