Messy conditions across the board this morning with cross to cross-onshore winds hammering the coast, but Marconi and Scituate are leading the pack at ★2.5 with solid 14-second E swell pushing 5ft-plus offshore. Wind is already onshore at Nantasket and cross-onshore everywhere else, so don't expect clean faces. Swell is building through the next 24 hours with most spots picking up a foot or more, but you'll need that wind to clock around before conditions improve over the next couple days.
Solid ESE swell pushing 8-plus feet at 15 seconds is lighting up Long Beach Island, with Harvey Cedars, LBI, Ship Bottom, Holyoke, and Beach Haven all checking in at ★3.5 — Broadway and Grant Street also hitting ★3.5 with slightly better NE cross-offshore flow if you want cleaner faces. The NE winds are running 25-27 mph and cross to cross-offshore at most spots, so it's workable but not pristine; Maryland spots are already getting more onshore chop. Swell continues building through the next couple days, so expect this energy to stay in the water — ride it while the wind cooperates.
Swell is building along the OBX but onshore NE winds are keeping quality down across the board. Best bets are Cape Hatteras Lighthouse and The Point Buxton, both at ★2.0, where the NE wind has at least some cross-offshore component to clean things up slightly. Swell continues building over the next 24 hours, so if the wind clocks around and cleans up midweek there could be something worth paddling out for.
Small, mushy ENE swell running 2-2.5ft at 7 seconds up and down the coast — not much to get excited about, but Sebastian Inlet stands out with light offshore flow making it the cleanest option right now. Everything's rating ★1.5 across the board, with most spots under cross winds. Conditions hold steady through the next day or two before likely fading, so if you're going, today's your window.
Scrappy one-star conditions across the board this morning, with ankle-to-knee-high swell at 4 seconds — barely worth the drive for most. If you're determined, 61st Street Galveston and Matagorda Beach have cross-shore winds keeping things slightly cleaner than the rest, which are already onshore. Swell holds steady through tomorrow, so don't expect a miracle — conditions look to stay flat and forgettable heading into the next few days.
Clean long-period SW swell running at 16 seconds is keeping things fun this morning — best options are Oceanside Harbor and PB Point (both ★3), with light offshores holding at PB and cross-offshore texture up the coast at Bird Rock and Garbage Beach (★2.5). Winds are cooperative early but expect the sea breeze to push onshore by midday. Conditions hold steady through tomorrow with no major drop-off, though nothing significant is queued up to build on this swell over the next few days.
Solid swell in the water this morning with the SW/WNW energy running 7-8ft at 12-16s — Jenner and Trinidad are the NorCal standouts, both at ★4, with light cross-onshore winds keeping things manageable. Oregon is firing too: Short Sands has the cleanest look with cross-offshore flow, and the whole coast from Cannon Beach to Otter Rock is sitting ★4 on that WNW groundswell. Expect conditions to fade over the next 24-48 hours as swell drops 1-2ft across the board, so get it while it's still pumping.
Solid WNW swell still running at 6-7ft and 12 seconds this morning, though it's fading through the day. Cape Disappointment, Long Beach, Ocean Shores, and Pacific Beach are all sitting at ★4.0, with La Push First and Second Beach close behind at ★3.5 and benefiting from that light cross-offshore flow — best groomed options right now. Expect swell to continue backing off over the next couple days, so get it while it lasts.
Solid south swell running at 5-7ft @ 13s is keeping most spots in fun territory this morning, with Barbers Point and Keaau Beach standing out thanks to cleaner winds — both rated ★3.5. North shores are seeing Peahi Jaws and Ho'okipa firing on that NW energy, though cross winds at 19-20mph are roughing things up a bit. Conditions hold steady through tomorrow with swell heights largely flat to slightly easing, so get on it sooner rather than later.
Small, junky conditions across the island this morning — 1.7 to 2.2ft swell at 8 seconds from the NE/ENE isn't doing much for anyone. Aviones leads the pack at a weak ★1.5, with Shacks and Jobos both at ★1.0; winds are cross to cross-onshore island-wide, keeping things messy. Swell holds steady through the next couple days with no meaningful pulse on the horizon, so don't expect much change — keep an eye on longer-period energy developing before committing to a session.
