Still some fun W-WNW swell lines sneaking in and mixing with some micro-combo S-SW swell on Monday. Nothing huge but at least rideable in most areas before the tide gets too high. Look for average spots to be in the knee-waist high range with some chest high sets through the dawn patrol.

The standout NW facing breaks, mostly through North OC, will be in the waist-chest high+ range pretty consistently through the morning and a few of the top spots will see some inconsistent chest-shoulder high+ sets at times. Look for all spots to have tide-swamp-ass issues as we head toward the peak of the tide around lunchtime.


Winds will be light/moderate offshore out of the E-NE around 5-10 knots and conditions look like they will hold together for most of the day…and even when they start to switch it shouldn’t blow bad enough to junk out the more protected areas too bad.

Here are the tides…
