Weekly Surf Report
August 30, 2010
National Forecast
Caribbean Coast - Small surf all week, with a possibility of some freak waist to stomach high surf on Thursday. Swell from the ESE bring some weekend relief if it moves closer to the coast, but that is not expected.
Pacific Coast - Consistent overhead surf all week from the SSW, getting up to 2 feet overhead early Wednesday. It drops a foot on Thursday and Friday before rebounding with more overhead surf for the weekend.
The Long Shot - By the end of the day a week from Monday there is a stretch of small surf. Chest to head next Tuesday, then waist to chest high at best from next Wednesday through Friday. Don't worry, there's more South swell to follow it by the 12th.

Local Forecast
From Louis at Hotel Las Tortugas -
The unpredictable, crazy weather continues. Last week a handfull of our guests surfed the main peak all by themselves for hours in rideable, but less than perfect, head high conditions. The swell has been around head high on the sets and smooth in the morning during high tide. This morning (Sunday) is beautiful although it will probably rain later on today.Without the cranking off shores it never seems to be perfect, but great sessions are being reported here and there.
From Colin at Una Ola -
Knee to chest high waves with poor to fair shape (2-4ft) The swell rain is weak but the waves look better this morning. The wind was light offshore and the conditions are glassy. We currently have sunny skies with light offshore winds and a chance of rain later today. If you have a chance, get out there soon. I don’t think it will last for long, but I’ve been wrong before.
