Join Surfrider LA this Saturday for their monthly Beach Cleanup at Venice Beach 🌊 Let's show some love to our coast and 🐳🐋🐠🐟🐬🐡! They will be out there scooping up butts 🚬, straws and all kinds of trash especially after the 4th, and need your help!

Date: Saturday, July 8th
Location: Venice Beach (just North of the Venice Pier you will see the big blue tent)
Time: 10-1pm
Nice Size S Swell; Minor NW Windswell.

LOLA wave heights in the SPAC last week.

Surf for the West Coast is going to improve for this weekend and early next week as a good size South swell moves in and peaks. Expect overhead surf for better summer breaks. Small NW windswell crosses it up at times. Winds are really the only issue, but winds look relatively light in the early mornings.

The vibes are high in Venice this summer. Join the party for community + commerce at General Admi52ion on Saturday July 8th from 3pm to Sunset.

Percentage of proceeds will be graciously donated to help support surf therapy thru A Walk On Water!

S Hemi Swells Linger; Fading NW Windswell.

LOLA wave heights in the SPAC, showing the good S swells headed to CA late this week.

Surf remains modest to fun size this week with Southern Hemi swells running as NW windswell drops off through mid-week. Summer swell magnets are the call the next few days with windswell expected to rebuild late week. There’s fairly steep angled but larger S Hemi swells due in for the upcoming weekend and next week.
