Updated: 2021-01-18 13:50:00 Surf: bumpy 3ft S Winds: Moderate ENE Weather: fine and sunny Rating: 3/10

Afternoon Report: Not quite the glamour conditions we had this morning. Wind is up out of the ENE and those bigger 4ft sets at south swell magnets are even more inconsistent. Mostly 2-3ft but starting to get a little bumpy now that seabreeze is in. Still plenty of options around, northern corners the pick now.

2021-01-18 06:33:00: inconsistent 3-4ft S, Light and variable N, fine 5/10

Inconsistent is the key word this morning. The south swell magnets are seeing mostly 2-3ft waves but for the patient there are 3-4ft sets. Winds are light and conditions are clean enough and a bit more tide will help some breaks. All other spots are much smaller.

2021-01-18 05:05:00: clean 3-4ft S, Light NW, partly cloudy 5/10

Dawn Report: That S swell is hanging around with magnets seeing 4ft sets. Those spots more protected from S swells are more like 2-3ft. A little lumpy as winds just went light and NW about an hour ago after ESE winds most the night. Worth a surf this morning, plenty of options around. Tune back in for the photo report around 8am.
