Waking up with the waves on Monday, I'm Surf Junkie Jeff with your Manhattan Beach Patch surf report. Well, it's almost back to small mode, but you can still find a few playful size waves.
The conditions are mostly clean and glassy early on, with a combination of some minor leftover west northwest swell and a touch of lingering southerly energy. That recipe is providing some fast semi-wally lines, with a few makeable corners. Look for that shape to improve once the tide fills in a bit.
Most Manhattan Beach spots are seeing knee to stomach high waves, with the focal points pulling an occasional chest high set.

At 5:19 this morning the tide dropped to a 1.5 low which will have many spots lacking water early on. The tide then climbs back up to a 3.9 high at 11:03 later this morning and then drops once again to a 1.0 low at 5:14 this evening, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
If you're planning on paddling, break out at least a 3/2 fullsuit and maybe the booties, with the water temperature averaging between 56 and 57 degrees. See ya in the water!
