Surf Report/Forecast
March 28-29, 2023
Forecast through next Tuesday: A small, medium period northwest (310) swell will peak, bringing small surf to north and west facing exposures. The swell will then gradually subside into Wednesday, when a similarly- sized shorter period northwest (320) will begin building in on its heels. This swell is forecast to peak Thursday and then slowly subside through week’s end. Meanwhile, a tiny, long period south-southwest (210-220) swell will bring a modest boost to south-facing shores through Tuesday. By the later half of the week, surf conditions will be dominated by wind waves and small fresh swell arriving mainly out of the east and southeast.
