Surf Report & Forecast for May 28-29

Chest-high and larger sets but south wind already on it.

Yesterday’s head-high, inconsistent and shifty, crossed-up, windswell-driven waves are still here today. 

But unlike yesterday, which saw very little wind, the south wind is already picking up, having reached 5 knots by 8:00 a.m. and very likely topping 10 knots by late morning. 

So plenty of chest to head-high waves, possibly some slightly overhead rogues coming in, but more ripple on surface texture. Expect a strong pull south.
