For Saturday morning we’ll see that NW swell on the fade but we’re anticipating some chest high leftovers. The NW energy will dip to 12 second intervals from 295-300 degrees.

The SW will continue to dish up inconsistent waist high sets but nothing you can really take to the bank!

The tide starts off pretty low at 06:48 AM (0.43 feet Low Tide), and very slowly creeps up into the afternoon.

ABOUT THE SWELLMAGNET FORECAST – One of the most exciting–and yet most challenging–aspects of surfing is the sheer variety of waves and weather conditions that affect the entire surfing experience. Any surfer who is interested in going beyond the most basic level of surfing will have to develop the ability to interpret waves and environmental conditions. This is important for ensuring both a safe and enjoyable experience.

The main difficulty lies in predicting how exactly the ocean and the environment will behave at any given time. One day, you could be riding four-footers all day and the next, you might be facing a glasslike surface with nary a ripple. Conditions can change drastically from day-to-day and even within the space of a couple of hours. To avoid wasted time and unproductive trips to the surf, it is essential to have access to reliable information on surf conditions.
