West to northwest swells at 3-6 feet with east or light northeast winds. Mid to low tide opens up the sandbars and keeps the shorebreak manageable. Winter brings the most consistent surf, but fall Santa Ana wind events produce the cleanest conditions of the year. Summer south swells can be fun but tend to close out on bigger days.
