Point of Rocks is looking pretty decent today for a chill Gulf dip, especially with that light offshore breeze. That 7.1 mph E wind is definitely the best factor, keeping things nice and calm on this west-facing spot. However, with the tide falling and 2.5 hours until slack, the shallow reef might feel a bit lower than ideal, which is the main drawback. The estimated visibility today is 10-15 ft.

Site Notes
West-facing Gulf site — best on calm days with light east winds. Shallow rocky entry. Gulf shelf is broad and shallow, dampening swell energy.
