Rhode Island spots are sitting at ★1.5 across the board with around 2-3ft model estimate swell at 8s from the SE — not ideal with ESE winds running onshore or cross-shore most everywhere. East Matunuck, Matunuck, and Marys have the slightly better wind angle right now if you're chasing it. Good news is swell is building significantly over the next 24 hours, so the next couple days should bring noticeably more size — keep an eye on how the wind shifts as that energy fills in.
Solid SE swell pushing 6-9ft model estimate at 9s is lighting up the region this morning, but wind is the story — Virginia Beach spots (Croatan, First Street Jetty, Oceanfront, North End) are the pick at ★3.0 with light cross-shore southerlies, while Maryland and Delaware are getting hammered by 24-33mph onshore ESE winds and rating out at ★2.5 despite bigger swell. Expect things to fade noticeably through tomorrow as swell drops 3-4ft across the board, so get your sessions in now while the energy is still there.
The Outer Banks is running solid this morning with ESE swell in the 6-7ft range at 8-9 seconds hitting spots up and down Hatteras Island and the northern Banks — Kill Devil Hills and Abalone Street have the cleanest look with cross-offshore southerlies, while everywhere else is cross at best. Top spots like Avalon Pier, Kill Devil Hills, and The Point Buxton are all rating ★3. Expect conditions to fade noticeably over the next day or two as this swell backs off, so get it while it's still pumping.
Northeast Florida is holding the best conditions this morning, with offshore winds grooming 3-foot-plus ESE swell at Mayport Poles, Marineland, Flagler Beach, and Matanzas Inlet — all rating ★1.5. The west-to-southwest winds along that stretch are the cleanest in the state right now. Expect things to back off through the day and into tomorrow as this swell fades, so get out early if you want the better end of it.
Onshore SE winds are hammering most of the Texas coast today, leaving Isla Blanca Park and South Padre Island as the best options at ★1.5 with model estimates around 3ft of ENE swell at 8 seconds — at least the cross-onshore flow there beats the full onshore mess everywhere else. Port Aransas Jetty also pulls a ★1.5 but SE winds are blowing straight in. Conditions hold steady over the next couple of days, so don't expect a dramatic turnaround — same marginal Gulf grind through the weekend.
Good SSW swell running at 14 seconds is lighting up the Ventura County stretch this morning — Port Hueneme and Silver Strand lead the pack at ★4, with County Line, Point Dume, and Leo Carrillo close behind at ★3.5. Winds are cross to cross-onshore at most spots, so pick your angle carefully; Leadbetter looks cleanest with a cross-offshore tilt. Swell is fading through the day and that trend carries into the next couple days, so get it while it's still pushing.
Good swell in the water this morning with long-period WNW and WSW energy lighting up spots up and down the coast — Cayucos Pier, Jenner, San Simeon, Trinidad, Piedras Blancas, Boneyard, and Pigeon Point all checking in at ★4.5, with winds mostly cross to cross-offshore keeping things reasonable. Pigeon Point has the cleanest look with cross-offshore flow at 7 mph. Expect the swell to fade through the next 24–48 hours as heights drop across the board, so get yours today while the long-period juice is still around.
Clean offshore flow is grooming a long-period W/WNW swell across the coast this morning, with La Push First Beach and Ocean Shores both earning ★4.5 — the standouts of the day. Cape Disappointment, Rialto, Second Beach, and Westport are all running ★4.0 with model estimates in the 6–8ft range at 17–20s, conditions holding steady through the next 24 hours. Enjoy the offshores while they last; keep an eye on the wind forecast as onshore flow typically returns by mid-week, which will soften conditions heading into the 2–3 day window.
Good morning. Cross-offshore trades are keeping things clean across the North Shore, with Velzyland leading the pack at ★4 on a model-estimated 7.2ft NW swell at 16 seconds — worth the drive. Sunset, Rocky Point, Off The Wall, and the rest of the Pipe stretch are all checking in at ★3.5 with similar conditions, though the swell is fading and you'll lose 1.5–2ft over the next 24 hours, so get out early and make the most of what's here.
Short-period north swell is holding steady around 3–3.6ft swell height at 7 seconds, keeping the east coast spots marginally in play — Playa Kikita leads at ★2.0, with Aviones, La Pared, and Pine Grove all sitting at ★1.5 under cross winds. Wilderness on the northwest is the cleanest option right now with cross-offshore flow at ★1.5. Swell looks steady through the next day or two before gradually easing, so don't expect improvement — get it while the winds cooperate.
