Tuesday looks like a surf day…not huge…but playful.
We will have a mix of inconsistent SW swell along with S swell and local NW windswell. Most spots will have surf in the waist-chest high range while the top combo spots and good S facing breaks along the tip will see some inconsistent shoulder high sets.
Winds look ok as well. NW flow around 10-15 knots will push through most of the day…showing strongest through the afternoon.
I would plan on trying to surf a well exposed break on Tuesday…something that really brings in a lot of swell…not one of the more sheltered point breaks. I also wouldn’t plan on wasting a lot of time or gas finding waves. Check the good/close spots…but don’t empty the tank hunting down surf that isn’t there.
Sorry there was a little lag on the Baja forecast...just got swamped out by the holiday weekend.

Wednesday in Baja Sur – Waiting for the S swell
Wednesday will have a few waves…but in general it will be mostly small and playful at the top breaks and just small at the average ones.
Look for a mix of S-SW swell along with the never-ending local NW windswell. Most breaks hold around knee-waist high while the standouts see some chest high waves on inconsistent sets.
Biggest waves will be out on the Pacific side, particularly at the spots that can pull in a bit of the windswell or really focus SW swells.
Winds hold out of the NW around 10-15+20 knots with the strongest gusts in the afternoon.
There is a light at the end of the tunnel…new S swell is due this weekend…it should be really fun at the S facing breaks in the next few days.

Tuesday’s Surf in Baja Sur
Tuesday will be a decent but small day in Baja Sur.
We will have a mix of S-SW swell and some local WNW windswell. Most spots will hold around waist-chest high on the tide push. Standout Pacific side breaks will have some inconsistent shoulder high+ sets. Expect long waits between some of those bigger sets as well.
Winds and weather should be nice with mostly N-NW winds around 10-15 knots through the morning and 10-20 knot winds through the afternoon.
Points and Reefs with protection from the NW winds will be the best call on Tuesday. There is just a bit too much wind developing along the coast to keep the other spots in cleaner surfable conditions. You will be giving up a little bit of size by hitting the points but I think that the cleaner conditions will make up for it.
Again don’t drive too far for surf…it ain’t worth it. Save your gas and your money and try and pick off some of the new SW swell that starts filling in a few days.
