Solana Beach is seeing playable surf with solid sets that have a good punch thanks to the longer swell. The swell direction is a bit off from ideal, but the waves are building toward a good size with smooth shape. Light west winds keep the surface clean, and the rising tide near mid-range height is fitting well with the conditions right now.
