San Diego, CA Surf Report for 02-18-2025
Alright surfers and beach lovers, buckle up for today's epic coastal conditions!
The Southern California surf scene is fired up with some serious wave action. Orange County and San Diego are looking at high rip current risks that demand your full attention and respect.
Starting with Orange County, we're seeing surf heights rolling in at 2 to 5 feet with potential sets reaching 6 feet on west-facing beaches. Mixed swells coming from 230 and 180 degrees are creating some wild water dynamics. Water temps are sitting comfortably between 56 and 60 degrees - wetsuit weather for sure.
San Diego's coast is cranking it up a notch with surf heights ranging 3 to 6 feet and potential sets up to 7 feet on west-facing beaches. West swells dominating at 270 degrees mean powerful, consistent breaks that'll challenge even experienced riders.
Newport Beach and La Jolla tides are dancing their own rhythm today. Newport's got low tides around 6:51 AM and 5:19 PM, with a midday high at 12:23 PM. La Jolla follows a similar pattern with low tides at 6:43 AM and 5:14 PM.
Wednesday's forecast looks slightly mellower for Orange County with surf dropping to 1-3 feet, but San Diego maintains solid 3-5 foot waves. Rip current risks will ease in Orange County but remain high in San Diego.
Bottom line: Stay alert, check local conditions, and never surf alone. These waves are beautiful but demand serious respect. Catch some epic rides and stay safe out there!
