Doheny is firing with solid sets rolling in from the south-southwest, hitting a sweet zone for this summer reef break. The tide is rising near 3 feet, helping the waves hold shape without getting too blown out or mushy. The light northwest breeze barely nudges the surface so the sets stay clean and smooth. Definitely worth paddling out for some fun, punchy waves with good push and spacing.
