That pristine reef at Steps is calling today, with minimal surf making for exceptionally calm conditions, truly the best factor out there. The estimated visibility today is 30-40 ft, helped by zero recent rainfall and a light SE cross-offshore wind keeping the surface clean. Just keep in mind the rising tide is the biggest quirk today; it's not ideal for navigating the steps or accessing the shallower parts of the reef, which is usually best at low tide.

Site Notes
West-facing — exposed to west and northwest swells. Summer is best when west coast is calm. Concrete steps for entry. Marine reserve — no collecting.
