Our surf will be a mix of fading S-SSW swell (180-200) and some background WNW/SW energy. None of the incoming swells have a lot of energy or consistency but they do manage to combo up for some slow, but fun, peaks at the better exposed breaks.
Most spots will be in the knee-waist high range with some inconsistent chest high sets at spots with a little more exposure to the S swell. The standout spots, mostly through Northern San Diego, the beach breaks in La Jolla, and a few of the more exposed beaches further south, will have surf in the waist-chest high range fairly consistently…but with some shoulder high sets mixing in at times. The beach breaks look a little better in overall shape…expect some slow mushiness on the points/reefs particularly if we are heading to a higher tide.
Winds look good, they will be very similar to what we have seen over the last few days. Overcast, grey skies and light/variable winds through the morning. Skies clear out and W winds build onshore around 10-12 knots by the afternoon.
Your best bet is just hunting around your local spots…it is a holiday and most of the top breaks are going to be weekend-crowded…so with the crowd and the soft/inconsistent swell mix we have out there it won’t be worth driving around a ton. Personally I am going to just stick close to home and hunt out a private little sandbar somewhere…and then fire up the bbq (and the coors light) in the afternoon as the sunshine and the wind picks up.
Have a good holiday…here are the tides!
