Let's get into the surf report with this quick
preview from the podcast. This morning, it's
looking fair with 2 plus feet, waves rolling
in and conditions are clean. The swell is from
the southwest and should hold steady throughout
the morning. By noon, the waves will drop slightly
to 2 feet and conditions will shift to choppy
as the onshore wind picks up to 4 miles per hour.
Best time to ride is at 9 a .m. with a five -foot
high tide when the southwest swell is one and
a half feet at 14 seconds and the side shore
wind is one mile per hour. The first high tide
on Wednesday will be six feet at 9 .45 a .m.
followed by a zero -foot low tide at 4 .45. The
nearshore buoy at Santa Monica Pier reads 65
degrees for the water temperature. Thursday offers
clean conditions with waves around 1 to 2 feet,
making it a perfect day for beginners. Friday
sees similar sizes, with waves holding at 1 to
2 feet in fair conditions, though the wind picks
up slightly in the afternoon. Saturday maintains
the same height, but shifts to choppy conditions
later as winds increase, so early sessions are
recommended. You can catch full episodes of Sunny
