Current Surf Conditions

Last updated: Apr 10, 2026 at 9:00 PM PDT

Trestles is seeing a playable south-southwest swell that's just a bit off from ideal direction, giving some solid sets that have power behind them but aren’t quite dialed. The west wind at moderate speed brings fair sideshore conditions, so expect some texture on the face but nothing too rough. The tide is dropping near 3 feet and still scoring excellent, setting up decent shape with the next low tide a bit later tonight.

Quick Conditions Snapshot

2.95 ft SSW swell at 17s, west wind 5-10 mph, dropping tide near 3 ft, 67°F water, 55°F air.
