Hatteras Village has playable waves with decent size but the swell feels a bit weak and lacks punch coming from the northeast, which is outside the best direction window. The east winds at moderate speed keep things fair with a sideshore effect, maintaining steady conditions. The tide is dropping around low tide, which supports a more consistent beach break feel, making it worth checking out for a casual session. Overall, not a standout day but solid enough for an easy paddle out and some mellow sets.
