Surfability Score™ Updated Hourly •
Scripps Pier is shaping up with solid, playable surf despite the swell direction being a bit off the ideal line. The waves have some power with that long swell pushing from the south, though the southwest wind at 10 mph is holding things back, keeping conditions a bit choppy. The tide is dropping around mid-level which fits this beach break alright but doesn’t add extra push. If you’re chasing surf with some push and shape, it’s worth a look, just don’t expect glassy perfection.
