Small but clean this morning across the Northeast — NW winds are keeping things groomed from Maine down through Rhode Island, with the whole region checking in at ★1.5. Old Orchard and The Wall Hampton are getting the purest offshore flow, while the Cape spots like Nauset and Marconi are seeing a slight bump in swell. Conditions hold steady through the next day or two before this SE swell fades further, so get it while the winds are cooperating.
NNW winds are keeping things cross-offshore this morning with 2.5–2.7ft ESE swell at 9 seconds — rideable but nothing to write home about. Seaside Heights, Seaside Park, Mantoloking, and Sea Girt are all sitting at ★2.0, the pick of the bunch today. Conditions hold steady through the next 24–48 hours, so don't expect any dramatic swings — what you see is what you get this stretch.
Small SE swell running 2-3ft at 9 seconds this morning, with the Hatteras area making the most of it — Hatteras Ferry Docks leads the region at ★2.0, with Cape Hatteras Lighthouse and Frisco Pier both sitting at ★1.5 on favorable offshore flow. Winds are cross to offshore along most of the Outer Banks right now, keeping things cleaner than the swell deserves. Expect conditions to build over the next 24 hours, so check back tomorrow — this one looks to be trending in the right direction heading into the next couple days.
Small ESE swell running 1.8–2.2ft at 9 seconds this morning, with NE winds keeping things cross-onshore and manageable. Best options are Fort Clinch and Mayport Poles leading the pack, with Jacksonville Beach Pier, Atlantic Beach, and Ponte Vedra all checking in at ★1.5 — nothing to write home about, but it's building. Expect conditions to improve through the next 24 hours as swell fills in; watch for winds to clock onshore and potentially mess with shape as the pulse peaks.
Small, junky ESE swell sitting in the 2–2.4ft range at 8–9 seconds — nothing to get excited about, but Matagorda Beach leads the pack at ★1.5 with light cross-offshore winds making it the cleanest option right now. Galveston Seawall also checks in at ★1.5 but onshore SE winds are keeping it messy. Conditions hold steady through the next day or two with no meaningful improvement on the horizon, so manage expectations and hit Matagorda early before the sea breeze fills in.
Offshore and cross-offshore winds are keeping things groomed this morning, with Rat Beach, White Point, El Porto, Zuma, and Bruce's Beach all checking in at ★2.5 on a mix of SSW and WSW swell running 3–4.5 feet at 11–13 seconds. Rat Beach has the cleanest look with true offshore flow, so start there. Expect conditions to fade through the next 24–48 hours as swell height drops across the board — enjoy the cleaner windows this morning before the energy bleeds off.
Solid SW swell running up the coast this morning with Mackerricher leading the pack at ★3.5 on 8ft-plus at 13 seconds — Jenner, Surf Beach Vandenberg, and Jug Handle are all checking in around ★3.0 with cross-onshore winds keeping things manageable for now. Expect conditions to fade through the day and into tomorrow as swell heights drop across the region. Keep an eye on the forecast for any new energy mid-to-late week, but plan your sessions early today while there's still size in the water.
Pretty underwhelming out there this morning — a lackluster 3-4ft swell at 8 seconds from the WNW is keeping everything locked at ★2. Cape Disappointment, Rialto, and Shi Shi are your marginal picks with lighter cross winds, while La Push and Hobuck are getting bumped by onshore flow and sit at ★1.5. Conditions hold steady through the next couple days with no significant swell on the doorstep, so don't expect much to change — this stretch is one for the groms and longboarders willing to work for it.
Solid cross-offshore ENE trades are keeping the North Shore looking clean this morning, with Ehukai, Off The Wall, Rocky Point, and Sunset all sitting at ★2.5 on modest 3.9ft/10s N swell. Waimea and Peahi are in the same ballpark, though nothing's breaking big enough to make Jaws worth the drive. Conditions hold steady through the next 24 hours, and with the trades staying consistent, don't expect dramatic changes over the next few days — fun but unremarkable surf until the next real swell shows up.
Modest NNE swell running 3–3.5ft at 8 seconds this morning with cross winds keeping things manageable. Kikita leads the pack at ★2.0, with Jobos, Shacks, and Middles all checking in at ★1.5 — worth a look if you're in the northwest. Conditions hold steady through the next couple of days, so don't expect anything to jump out at you, but the swell stays in the water and the winds aren't shutting it down completely.
