Laguna Beach Wave Check: Monday

Minimal energy along this stretch of sand.

Waking up with the waves on Monday, I'm Surf Junkie Jeff with your Laguna Beach Patch surf report. Well, you're definitely not going to find much in the way of waves along this stretch of sand. Yep, it's pretty small and weak out there!

The conditions are starting off mostly clean and glassy, with a minor mixture of southwest swell and a touch of northwest windswell in the water.

That recipe is providing some crumbly broken-up lines, with a few workable ones on a big board of some sort. Most spots in Laguna Beach are running about knee-high, with the top combo breaks pulling some thigh- to waist-high waves.

Checking the tides ... at 6:03 early this morning, it drains out to a negative 0.1 low, which will have several spots desperate for water early on. The tide then pushes back up to a 4.5 high at 12:32 this afternoon, then drops again to a 2.0 low at 5:55 this evening.

If you're itching for a salt water bath, well, that water temperature is feeling really nice, so throw on a springsuit or even some trunks, with it averaging between 67 and 70 degrees. Good luck out there!
