Surf Forecast Overview

3-5ft
Summary:
The mix of S-SW swell (190-220) continues on Friday as more long-period swell moves in to reinforce the energy we already have in the water. Look for the NW windswell to hold through the day as well thanks to stronger outer water winds. Right now the conditions look a little textured thanks to another round of eddy conditions but the size-consistency of the swell should keep the crumble from getting to pronounced.
