Still Fairly Small But You Can Catch a Wave or Two
The surf is workable with the right equipment.
Good Thursday morning surfers, I'm Surf Junkie Jeff with your Manhattan Beach Patch surf report. Well, it's still fairly small, but some spots are showing a little more energy out there today. You'll probably want to get out the small wave gear depending on where you're paddling!
We're seeing some pretty clean conditions early on, with a combination of mostly minor northwest windswell and some little south southwesterly energy in the water. That recipe is offering some crumbly sectiony lines, with a few fun corners.
Most Manhattan Beach spots are pulling knee to waist high waves, with the standout breaks pulling some stomach high waves, with maybe a plus set.

Checking those tides thanks to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. At 9:08 this morning it drops to a 0.4 low which will have many spots drained out and needing water mid to late morning. The tide then climbs back up to a 2.8 high at 3:52 this afternoon.
If you're going to get wet, throw on at least a 3/2 fullsuit or a 4/3 and possibly the booties, with the water temperature hanging between 56 and 57 degrees. See ya in the water.
