Seaside Reef has solid SSW swell that's building toward prime size, delivering punchy, well-packed sets across the reef. The west wind at 10 mph is still really messing with the lineup, but conditions should ease as the wind calms later. The tide is dropping near low, keeping the waves shaping up well over the reef. If you can deal with some wind chop early, there’s enough power here for a solid session.
