Lots of waves on tap for the weekend…the swell direction and the equally important swell period are both pretty good for SB, which means that most spots will be working in some fashion. Points and reefs are going to have the best shape, but the crowd factor is going to be pretty high, so if you are looking a little extra room you might have to get creative picking your spot.
On Saturday look for the average and/or more sheltered areas to see surf in the chest-shoulder high range with some occasional bigger sets mixing in. The more exposed areas in South County will see surf in the shoulder-head high range with some overhead sets showing at times. Top spots will have more consistent shoulder-overhead sizes.
Sunday the swell increases pushing average spots into the shoulder-head high+ range. The better exposed areas see waves in the head high to a couple of feet overhead and the top spots will likely for a few feet overhead on the biggest sets.
Winds look good for both days…light/moderate offshore E winds for the mornings and mostly variable slightly side/onshore for the afternoons. Some of the more protected spots may stay close to clean throughout the day. Look for the morning offshore flow to back down slightly on Sunday.
Here are the tides…
