Swell Summary

A small, medium period south swell will continue to provide small surf along south facing shores today. A small long period south southwest swell is forecast to arrive towards the middle of the week, which will bump up surf along south facing shores.

Surf along east facing shores will remain choppy with short period wind waves before slowly declining with the trade winds on Monday. Local wind swell may wrap into select north and south facing shores through the day. A tiny background west northwest swell could arrive late Tuesday into Wednesday providing a small bump for north facing shores.
