Doheny is shaping up with solid SSW swell pushing through, delivering strong, well-spaced sets that suit the reef break perfectly. The wind is fair but a sideshore NW breeze keeps things manageable and improving, so expect clean enough conditions for good rides. The tide is dropping near 2.5 feet, which fits well for holding the wave shape without washing out. It’s a legit session with enough punch to challenge intermediate surfers and keep local regulars stoked.
