SURF REPORT: Tuesday's Waves Look Playful

Similar energy to the last few days.

Good Tuesday morning surfers, I'm Surf Junkie Jeff with your San Clemente Patch surf report.

Well, we're seeing similar size as the last couple of days, with most of this stretch of coast offering plenty of playful waves.

The conditions are fairly clean, but it looks like one of those days where the wind could get on it at anytime. As far as the surf goes, we're seeing some new, decent size northwest windswell and some continued easing south southwest energy in the water.

That recipe is providing some fairly broken-up lines, with a few good corners to grab. Most spots in San Clemente are seeing knee- to chest-high waves, with the focal points pulling some shoulder high plus sets.

Checking the tides: At 5:25 early this morning it climbed up to a 4.0 high and then drains out to a 0.5 low at 12:07 this afternoon. Your best bet is probably sometime mid- to late-morning, providing the wind doesn't pick up.

If you're going to grab a session, you'll want to wear at least a 3/2 fullsuit and maybe the booties, with the water temperature averaging between 58 and 59 degrees.

See ya' in the water!
