The waves today!!

The waves today are solid overhead with still a strong northerly push. Winds are strong  N. creating a side chop texture on the west coast. However there are options if your keen to seek. We checked local and found one reef that had some chunky peaks with no one out. Look for lighter and better direction winds the next day or 2.
