Swell Summary

Surf along exposed north and west-facing shores will continue to ease into Thursday as a northwest swell moves out. An upward trend is expected late Thursday through Saturday as a couple of northwest (320-330 degrees) swells arrive, peaking Friday night through Saturday. This may push surf heights back to advisory levels at the peak late Friday through Saturday. A downward trend is then expected Sunday through early next week.

Surf along east-facing shores will remain rough through the rest of the week due to strong easterly trade winds.

Surf along south-facing shores will remain small, with mainly background south and southeast swells.
