AI Spot Summary
Vista Park is feeling a bit sluggish today, with the reef looking more like a murky aquarium than the usual vibrant ledge system. That SSE cross-onshore wind is churning up the nearshore sediment, and while the minimal rainfall is a plus, the water column is definitely feeling the impact of the swell. The estimated visibility today is 10-15 ft, so expect to stick close to the ledges if you want to spot any of the local turtles.
