Wildwood Crest

The current wave conditions consist of choppy, short-period swell at 1.3 feet, combined with a strong SW onshore wind at 10 mph, creating a rough and disorganised surface. The tide is low and incoming, slightly aiding the shape but not enough to counteract the shallow profile. Expect consistent 2-3 foot waves throughout the day, lacking the necessary power and texture for any significant rides.
