Swell Summary
Outlook through Tuesday July 17: Trades will be in the moderate to breezy range through the rest of the week over most waters, which will again marginally boost east shore surf. Surf along south facing shores will get a small boost tonight into Wednesday, which will persist at least through Saturday. No other significant swells are expected.
Surf heights are forecast heights of the face, or front, of waves. The surf forecast is based on the significant wave height, the average height of the one third largest waves, at the locations of the largest breakers. Some waves may be more than twice as high as the significant wave height. Expect to encounter rip currents in or near any surf zone.
