Good morning, I'm bringing you the latest surf zone forecast for Southern California from the National Weather Service in San Diego, valid through Friday evening.
Let's start with Orange County. We're looking at small, fun-sized waves today and tomorrow, consistently running one to three feet with occasional sets pushing up to four feet. The water's sitting pretty at sixty-two to sixty-nine degrees, so you might want to consider a light wetsuit depending on your cold tolerance. Rip current risk remains low both days, so conditions are looking safe for water activities. We've got mixed swell approaching from two different angles, coming in from the southwest and south directions, which should keep things interesting as the swells interact with our local bathymetry.
The tidal situation in Newport Beach shows a high of four feet early this morning at two forty-one AM, with the low dropping to less than a foot around noon. Tomorrow's tides will be a bit more active, with highs near four feet in the early morning and another peak around eight twenty-four PM, while lows dip below a foot at midday and climb to nearly three feet by late evening.
Now heading south to San Diego County, conditions are virtually identical in terms of wave heights and rip current risk, though the water temperature is slightly cooler, ranging from sixty-two to sixty-five degrees. That might push a few more surfers toward their winter suits. The mixed swell here is coming from similar directions, mainly from the west and southwest, creating that dynamic ocean texture we love.
Over at La Jolla, we're seeing comparable tidal action with a high of three point nine feet early this morning and that midday low around eleven forty-seven AM. Tomorrow's tide cycle follows a similar pattern to Newport, with multiple highs and lows throughout the day, giving you plenty of windows to work with.
No thunderstorms are expected at either location, so you won't have to worry about lightning strikes or sudden weather changes ruining your session. The forecast looks stable and cooperative for the next two days.
So whether you're heading out this morning or waiting until tomorrow, you've got small, manageable waves, safe conditions, and no weather interference expected. Perfect for beginners looking to practice or intermediate surfers wanting some mellow fun in the water.
