AI Spot Summary

La Perouse is feeling a bit restless today, with that persistent E wind chopping up the surface and making the rocky entry a little more interesting than usual. While the minimal rainfall keeps the runoff at bay, the cross-shore breeze is definitely the main event, keeping things stirred up across the lava flats. The estimated visibility today is 30-40 ft, which is decent for scanning the coral heads, though you'll want to keep an eye on the tide as it pushes toward the next slack.
