Surf Report comments:
7:40 am: Small surf again today. Wave height early looks 1/2 a foot to 1 foot. The wind is light offshore allowing for glassy surface conditions. Our local buoy the early wave height reading is 1.6 feet at 4 seconds, changed from yesterdays 1.0 foot at 10 seconds. The marine forecast is predicting S winds later today. The water temperature is measured at 64 degrees at The Pier this morning. See the ocean live by viewing The Surf Station Cam Page here.
8:00 am: Early morning photos are up and posted and you can see we have very small surf for your Saturday. Near tiny overall, with shin to knee high semi-glassy to glassy waves breaking on the far inside. Near fin dragging waves as it is very very small, and breaking in very shallow water.
