Surfability Score™ Updated Hourly •
San Elijo is holding solid lines with a clean, light west wind keeping things smooth out there. The swell is coming from the SSW with enough length to punch through, building toward prime size but not quite firing at max yet. The tide is dropping just over a foot and a half, which is okay but not ideal for the reef break’s best shape. Overall, it’s a solid session if you’re chasing clean sets and can handle a bit less push from the tide.
