The current conditions feature choppy ESE swells with a 5-second period, creating small 1.6-foot waves that are too short and gutless for quality surf. The cross-shore SW wind is grooming the face slightly but not enough to smooth out the turbulence. Tides are low at this point, further hindering wave development, as the spot prefers mid or high tide levels.
