Strong NE cross-offshore winds are keeping conditions clean along the Panhandle this morning, with Destin Jetty and Navarre Beach both pulling ★3.5 on model-estimated swell around 6–8ft at 12 seconds — solid energy for the Gulf. Okaloosa Island Pier and Pensacola Beach are right behind at ★3.0 with similar swell and wind angles holding. Swell is building across most top spots over the next 24 hours, and with that trend continuing into the next few days, expect the Panhandle to stay the standout zone — enjoy it before the wind inevitably clocks onshore.
