Go Grab Your Board Today

There's a modest amount of action that should translate into some decent surfing today.

Waking up with the waves on Monday, I'm Surf Junkie Jeff with your Manhattan Beach Patch surf report. Well, we're seeing a modest amount of action on tap today, so get out there and grab a session at some point during the day!

The conditions are starting off fairly clean, with some spots seeing some texture on the surface. As far as the surf goes, we've got some residual south-southwest swell and some new northwest energy filling in.

That recipe is offering some fast and kinda crumbly sectiony lines, with some pretty good shoulders. Most Manhattan Beach spots are running about knee to chest high, with the focal points pulling some shoulder high sets.

At 11:16 later this morning, the tide drops to a 0.4 low which will have some spots lacking water mid-day. The tide then pushes back up to a 4.0 high at 6:18 this evening, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

If you're planning on paddling, throw on at least a 3/2 fullsuit and maybe the booties, with the water temperature averaging between 57 and 58 degrees. Have fun out there!
