Swell Summary

Surf along south facing shores will remain small over the next couple of days before a small, moderate period south swell fills in Friday into the weekend. A slightly larger swell from a fetch near New Zealand could arrive early next week and hold through the middle of the week, boosting surf heights.

Surf along east facing shores will remain moderate and choppy due to moderate trade wind swell, and surf along north facing shores will remain tiny through the forecast period.
