Swell Summary
Surf along east facing shores will remain up into the second half of the week due to the breezy trades. Elsewhere, mainly small background swells from the south and northwest are expected. The exception will be for north facing shores exposed to trade wind energy wrapping in, which could generate some small surf for the typical standout locations this week. A small north swell is possible next Tuesday through midweek.
