Current Surf Conditions

Last updated: Apr 3, 2026 at 1:24 PM PDT

Trestles is holding solid waves with good shape, though the swell energy feels a bit light due to the shorter interval. The tide is dropping near mid-level, which keeps the sets peeling well for most lineups. West winds at a steady moderate clip are creating fair, sideshore texture but the waves remain very surfable with water temps staying comfy for a short-sleeve wetsuit or spring gear.
