Updated: 2018-11-15 07:15:00 Surf: peaky 2-3ft ENE Winds: Light and variable NNW Weather: mostly fine Rating: 4/10

As the dawn report stated, the swell has a bit of size and energy this morning though winds are light and conditions are clean and it's looking fun on the beaches. Hit the magnets for the most size and power but there are waves across all beaches.
