Don't tell anyone - 100 year S swell is here.  Only Bodhi knows about it.

Still plenty of swell out there as buoys continue to read 4.4' @ 18 secs.  A bit of south wind this morning and lots of fog on the deck.  You'll have to paddle out into the unknown but the waves are out there and plenty for everyone. Temp currently 54F with overcast and fog.  Expected warm inland and mild to 70F at the beaches.  Should eventually see the sun but it has a bit of work to do to burn through.  Parking spaces are disappearing quickly as weekend warriors fill the beach.  Great time to buy that new board and put it through the paces!

 

CHANNEL: Swell angle has moved a touch more W and the Channel is getting a bit of action.  Still needs more water as the morning low is starting to fill in.  Current wave size is knee to thigh high lefts at the Groin.  Afternoon and evening saw chest high lefts in the Channel and head high dumpers at the Boat Ramp.  Still have body-whomping, boogie boarding, steep drop stuff happening right out front with shortboarders on it.  Waves spread out from the ramp to Seadrift and part in between.


PATCH: A bit of morning hangover here as the tide is low and filling in and the S winds are not helping.  Swell still has juice and is breaking mid-way, outside and way outside.  Outside 3rd reef style in the Patch.  Not Afrika-Greene but way, way, way outside past the meeting rock.  Bring your good paddling arms and head out into the unknown.  Stuff is out there and ready to be ridden but current conditions are very foggy.  Size still running waist to shoulder high with some clean faces but also lots of sections to navigate.  More water will and did improve things yesterday.

Surf's Up!  South swell pumps with buoy readings of 5' @ 20 secs.  Plenty of juice to get things working even with the morning low tides.  June gloom with overcast conditions which are keeping the winds nil.  Temp currently 54F.  Will probably have sun on and off today - like yesterday.  Already no parking in town as this is the first big swell of summer.  More water will help and clean things up a bit as well.  Grab your best big board or come by the shop to get something new as the racks are full of great sticks.

 

CHANNEL: Not the right angle for the Channel.  There are small waves off the Groin bar and size is thigh high.  Out in front of the boat ramp surf is breaking and has ride potential as well.  Size up to waist high here.  There are a few waves if this is your preferred spot but not the best today.


PATCH: Chunky and lumpy but definitely feeling the swell.  Low tide conditions not the most favorable but swell is big and juicy pulses are coming through.  Bring your best paddling board as it is happening way, way outside right now.  The best waves go chest to shoulder high and are smooth and long.  Consistently waist high + and a good amount of push.  The Southern Siberian Express - around the meeting rock but a bit south has clean waist high rights that will take you to the beach.  Not as big as outside but good, clean and available.  Then Reading Railroad outside way past the meeting rock has waves up to shoulder high with rights and lefts available to ride.  A few knee crunching, kidney bouncing sections to navigate as well.  Expect long paddles back out but worth the effort.  Crowded lineup with about 20 surfers, 4 SUPs, 3 NUPs and a bunch more heading out.  Incoming tide will clean it up and groom things nicely as well.

Comforting conditions with a little foggy blanket, no wind and a good morning temp of 55F.  More surfers than waves currently as everyone is frothing for the coming S swell.  Good long period buoy numbers in Southern CA but not up here yet.  It's coming - but maybe not until Friday.  Still something out there to ride and the morning low tide is filling in right now. 

 

CHANNEL: Smooth and glassy little lefts on the middle bar and well on over to the Groin Pole.  Size only running about knee to thigh but rideable none-the-less.  Seadrift exploration will yield some rights worth riding but everything is longboard necessary at this point.  About 12 rabid riders on it.


PATCH: Starting to work a bit.  More water is helping and way outside past the exposed meeting rock some thigh high + rollers are appearing.  South swells have long lulls and since it isn't fully here yet a more consistent bet is mid-way and inside at the Snags as the incoming is giving that little push.  12-15 surfers and SUPs here.  Stay tuned for better stuff later in the week.

Good morning to all of you sliders of the brine. Woo-wee it is nice to be back as King of the Dorks here at the 2-Mile world headquarters. Well, let's get down to it, shall we? It's a bit overcast this morning with the temperature bopping in at a mellow 55 degrees. Not much of a wind to speak of, so those surface conditions are smoother than a velvet track suit on Tony Soprano. Not what one would describe as a huge bump in the water but there are humanoids out there giving it a go as the bigger the board, the better the glide!

 

CHANNEL: Snarky little waist (+/-) undulations are traversing the lineup at the middle bar and well on over to the Groin Pole. There is also some activity with due attention being paid over at the Sea Drift area as well. About six (6) on longboards and janitor equipment giving it that school hallway high gloss shine.


PATCH: Nope. It's grunting and groaning like Ann Wilson of Heart at a All-You-Can-Eat buffet table but nothing is really rolling.... yet. Maybe later today....? maybe later in the week?

 Daaang brother, we have some glassy conditions today. Sheet o' glass out there but unfortunately with a lack of swell. A few fishermen are trying their luck again while not many surfers are doing the same. One morning charger looking for a little somethang next to the groin sign. Over all its a rad morning to find your long lost parents and squeeze in a session. 57*F this morning with no wind and gray sky's. Sorry, I know how good it is to feel a breeze through your mullet.

 

CHANNEL: Small lefts breaking at thigh to waist-ish high. Morning incoming tide seems to be helping slightly. Gulls and a few pelicans are snaking everyone and the harbor seals are sharing some stink eye. The phantom sun should make an appearance in the afternoon. Today the channel is where its at.

PATCH: Nada, zilch, none. If your a morning nude swimmer who loves to balance their energies and find spiritual enlightenment then head over this way. If you are a surfer looking for surf you will have more fun collecting clown figurines with mom. There is one small rock showing itself and no one out. Be the first to soak up the serenity.

Where are all my frickin' chips! Gray day in town with a slight texture on the waters surface. Not many in beautiful H2O this morn, but about 5 stoked fisherman casting out from the sand. 56*F, with a slight nip in the air just to erect your nipples. Find your chap-stick, ditch the haters, eat your taters, and come an enjoy the mellow morning.

 

CHANNEL:  The channel is seeing waist to diaphragm size surf and only one shredder out there to pick and choose. That is what must be done today as a good section looks hard to come by. With a few pumps followed by a backside air rev on this semi closeout would be siiick... but mind surfing is much easier. The occasional left could make your day less gray.


PATCH: Rocks popping their lil domes out looking for a set that's non-existent, while ankle high rollers are putt putting out before they reach the shore. Its true, you can't always get what you want. Just eat the food Tina, and come surf. Tide going low which most likely will not help the situation so hurry out or wait it out. Good day to buy a new board and grab some washed up bits of crab for brunch.

VOTE for Pedro. Buy more chap-stick.

Load up the vehicle and get the band back together, nerd style.

 

Another beautiful day in Bolinas.  The lot is filling up, surfers and dog walkers delight in this sunny morning with mellow temps.  Tiny windswell providing sugar lumps for those that dare.  About 57 degrees and lots of people in the ocean already, basking in the rays and logjamming towards shore.  I think Lambda Lambda Lambda is having their annual beach retreat BBQ so grab your sorority sweetie and pledge to the Pi God at 3:14 this afternoon.  Go get wet and have beer n' a brat, summer is here.

CHANNEL:   Ahoy Palloi!  About 20 or so surfers out.  Malibobo early and now middle channel to seadrift is the place to be, peaky and spread out.  Waves in the knee high range with occasional thigh to maybe waist...overhead if you're body womping, more surfers than waves at the moment, but light a candle and jam it.


PATCH: About ankle on the sets, rocks starting to show as the tide drops like Sunny Liston...no one out, no one home, high tide, low tide, no tide, no waves, no cares.  If a south miraculously appears, maybe you'll snag one on your schooner.

Attention Logjammers!   Load up the family truckster and head on out to the beach.  School is out.  Temps are hot.  Let Summer begin!  

 

We have beautiful blue skies with no wind and morning temp of 57F.  Rapidly warming due to high pressure over the area through the weekend.  Great day to come to the beach.  Catch some rays, catch some zzzzzs, catch up on some reading and maybe even catch some waves.

 

Good morning tides but still heading to low.  Lots of beach to walk on but no exposed rocks - yet.  Early or late will yield best potential results as mid-day tide is too low. 

 

CHANNEL:   Deep in the Channel there are waves reaching up to waist high in size.  Split personality types - starts left, then bends back right, then straightens out, then wiggles around until it finds the inner bars and runs again.  Longboards are the call and there are lots of them in the water already.  Hoot your buddy into a wave.  Yell at your buddy to get out of your way.  Just remember - Sharing is Caring.  Also, rights at Seadrift that are almost waist high and smooth.  Water is a bit warmer.  Sun is out and there is something worth getting wet for.  


PATCH: Still a bit flat but a few thigh high rollers breaking along mid-way and outside.  Yoshi on it early and getting most to himself.  Take your big log or SUP out and say "Hi" and get a few for yourself as well.

Sunny skies with light valley fog on the drive out and a morning temp of 54F.  No wind and a high pressure system is over the area through the weekend.  Inland temps expected into the 90s.  Come out to the beach to cool off and take a dip.  

 

No more S swell and just localized NW windswell in the water.  Next real swell of significance isn't due until next week.  It looks legit with periods out to 22s and wave heights of 4' but not expected to reach CA until the 5th or 6th.  Stay tuned! 

 

Better morning tides but still heading to low.  Lots of beach to walk on but not too many exposed rocks - yet.  Early or late will yield best potential results as mid-day tide is too low.  Micro waves at best but a beautiful day here in Bolinas. 

 

CHANNEL:   Lefts working in the knee high size both at the Groin and in the Channel.  Not too much going on here but just enough to get a longboard moving.  Possibly something going on over at Seadrift where the rights may be working in the knee high range as well. 


PATCH: Bordering on FLAT with the occasional knee high log-able right working midway and outside.  Great for kayaks and touring SUPs.  Not so much for wave riding equipment today.

Sunny skies with a morning temp of 54F.  A bit breezy but from the NW so good direction.  Seems a bit calmer down at the beach.  Diminishing S swell and low water levels greet us this morning.  Lots of beach exposed for that long walk with your sweetheart.  More water will equal more waves but that will take some time. Early-early is best or afternoon / evening for best tides. 

 

CHANNEL:   Sand and lots of it.  Calf cramping lefts off the Groin.  Knee knocking lefts in the Channel.  Take your pick and bring the biggest board you have. 


PATCH: Rocks and lots of them.  Thigh tingling rights way, way outside.  Lots of paddling potential and bring your longest log.

The SUN is now out having replaced the overcast and grey skies.  No wind and temp clocking in at 58F.  No water with the negative low tides in the morning.    Lots of beach exposed if you are looking to take a long walk and treasure hunt the reef.  More water will equal more waves but that will take some time.  Take your time coming out and expect an afternoon or evening session.

 

CHANNEL:   Sand and lots of it.  Knee crunching lefts that are going un-ridden.

Post holiday weekend.  Town has a bit of that hangover feel now that everyone has gone home, back to work and school.  Not too trashed or thrashed but used well and put away wet. 

 

General moistness but already 59F with clearing skies, blue and sunshine!  Rained yesterday and overnight and is currently clear and calm.  No wind and also no water as the early morning negative low tides are NOW.  Everything is uncovered - ALL rocks and ALL sandbars.  Come check out what makes waves work at Bolinas.  While you are at it pick up and throw away a few pieces of trash as well.  Plenty of potential as the town is empty, weather is nice and there is still some swell in the water.

 

CHANNEL:   No tide.  No water.  No waves.  A few pieces of water here and there making an attempt but this places needs a few hours of incoming tide to get rolling.  Check it around noon and into the evening for best results.  Fishing conditions look good.


PATCH: Negative low tide, all rocks exposed.  Empty lineup.  A few marginal waves trying to work.  This place also needs a few hours of incoming tide to get water levels up and waves working.  Check back around noon and into the afternoon / evening.

NOON UPDATE: Getting some light rain sprinkles. Wind does remain light and there are still waves in town. 

 

Memorial Day Monday.  A good day to kiss mermaids and ride the El Nino.  Walk the sands with the crustaceans.  Find your way to Mariana on the waves of Bolinas.

 

Calm, cool and collected morning with light clouds giving way to blue skies.  Temp is 57F and it promises to be another nice day at the beach.  Another all-time negative low tide this morning with every rock and sandbar exposed for your viewing pleasure.  Explore the uncharted reefs and look for that fin you lost in the Patch 3 years ago.  Walk across the Channel to Seadrift and visit some friends.  There are still small waves to ride and more water will be a bonus. 

 

CHANNEL:   Low tide / No tide but slowly filling in.  Still have set sandbars and the Groin left has great shape if not great size.  Going knee high + currently but will improve throughout the day.  Incoming tide push will get this place working as Mali-Bo rights and the Channel left just need more water.  Still a few waves in front of the boat ramp for the boogie board or hand plane.  Expect crowds later and more surf as well.  Best tides are later this morning, afternoon and evening. Hopefully the winds stays light.  3 people in the water trying to make it work.


PATCH: Negative low tide, all rocks exposed but still crowed with waves to ride.  SUPs and logs doing the dance with rights and lefts popping up.  Size runs to thigh high but it is surfable even with no water.  Grab something big and join the fun.

Overnight winds from the N where Highway 5 meets the 89 then goes S to the 44.  Winds from the E where Highway 80 joins the 50 then meets up with the 680.  Winds from the S where Highway 101 and 280 merge.  Has chilled down the water and ruffled the surface as well.  Currently calm and warm at 57F.  Sunny, blue skies - another nice Memorial Day weekend beach day.  Winds have been and will pick up later in the day into the evening but now looks good and rideable surf does remain in town.  Super low morning tide so bring the shovel and pail then pull out the log as the water returns.

 

CHANNEL:   Low tide / No tide but starting to fill in.  Still have set sandbars and the Groin left has great shape if not great size.  Going knee high + currently but will improve throughout the day.  Incoming tide push will get this place working as Mali-Bo rights and the Channel left just need more water.  Still a few waves in front of the boat ramp for the boogie board or hand plane.  Expect crowds later and more surf as well.  Best tides are later this morning and hopefully the winds stays light.  2 people in the water. Everyone ABIDE.


PATCH: Negative low tide but the Patch is working.  Rights popping up and rideable in the thigh to almost waist high size.  This is the better spot right now and is currently supporting about 22 surfers and a few SUPs.  Tide has just turned around and the incoming tide will get things working better.  Try your luck here now and sample the Channel later.

Memorial Day weekend and everyone is coming to the beach.  We do have nice weather and sunny skies will hold throughout the holiday.  Winds have been moderate to stiff in the afternoon and evenings and that has brought the water temp down to 49F.  Boots and gloves may be required depending on your tolerance level.  Morning temp is 51F and winds are nil to very light at the moment.  Still have surf that is hitting all through town and delivering a little bit for everyone today.  Spread out from the Patch to the Channel with bars in-between as well.  Expect crowds and mind your manners in and out of the water.

 

CHANNEL:   Pieces here and pieces there.  Occasionally a clean and lined up left off the Groin bar that will hold up and run to the beach.  Also, surf  and shore dumpers right out in front of the boat ramp with sectiony lefts to ride or body surf here as well.  Size is around thigh to waist high on the best waves in the Channel.  Still spread out but expect thick crowds and lots of yard sale action today. A very low negative tide is filling in and starting to cover up the rocks and sand.  Better tides late morning and throughout the day. 


PATCH: Pop Up Peaks in the Patch this morning.  Incoming tide has the inside Snags working cleanly as it runs towards the beach.  Great for body surfing or boogie boards and a fish may work as well.  Outside and mid-way there are waves that go about waist high +/- and they are rideable on a big board or SUP.  Plenty of waves to ride this morning.  Logs work best as per usual.

Fabulous Friday with clear blue skies, no wind and morning temp of 53F.  Expecting another nice weather day with winds increasing in the afternoon. Ocean temp of 49F and chilled out due to recent winds.  Bring the booties and gloves if you need them.  A bit more surf today in that it is hitting a few different spots and there are plenty of waves for everyone.  Localized NW windswell and a small S swell providing fun waves to ride in town today.  Glassy and glistening in the sun.  A beautiful morning to be in Bolinas. 

 

CHANNEL:   Clean and shapely left off the Groin bar that holds up for turns and runs.  Also, surf right out in front of the boat ramp with sectiony lefts to ride here as well.  Size is around thigh to almost waist high and it is spread out on the different bars with about 10 surfers up and riding.  The incoming tide hitting Mali-BO is worth a look as well as that wave is always fun.


PATCH: Push REPEAT from yesterday.  Peaks galore and popping up all over the Patch today.  Incoming tide has the inside Snags working cleanly as it runs towards the beach.  Mid-way and outside there are waves that go anywhere from waist high and a bit bigger.  Plenty of waves to ride this morning.

Chill air but sunny skies and no wind - yet.  Morning temp of 51F and warming.  Ocean temp of 49F and chilled out due to recent winds.  Bring the booties and gloves if you need them.  Still expecting afternoon winds to blow so jump in now for the best conditions.  Localized NW windswell and the remaining S swell still delivering fun waves to ride in town today.  Glassy and glistening in the sun.  A beautiful morning to be in Bolinas. 

 

CHANNEL:   Clean and shapely left off the Groin bar that holds up for turns and runs.  Size is around thigh to almost waist but consistent and fun.  A few rights worth exploring at Seadrift and the incoming tide hitting Mali-BO is worth a look as well.  A crowd of 2 in the water getting it good.  



PATCH: Peaks galore and popping up all over the Patch today.  Incoming tide has the inside Snags working cleanly as it runs towards the beach.  A few shore dumpers that require an early exit but fun stuff to ride.  Mid-way and outside there are waves that go anywhere from waist high and a bit bigger.  Plenty of waves to ride this morning.

Chill air with already moderate winds.  Expecting to increase during the day.  Now a bit NW with sunny, blue skies and a morning temp of 50F.  Should remain clear but with slightly lower temps through the weekend.  South swell remains in play + N windswell that can combo up to improve surf conditions.  Mornings look like the best time especially if the wind increases.  Waves to ride in both town spots today. 

 

CHANNEL: A touch smaller but still clean and hitting the Groin bar.  Size running up to waist high with a very smooth left for your riding pleasure.  Longboards and eggs will excel this morning.  Don't overlook the inside Mali-Bo rights as the incoming tide makes it work.  The sandbars are re-formed and look ready for summer.  About 5 in the water here. 


PATCH: Plenty of smooth surf all over the region.  The rights mid-way and inside look to be the best call as they are breaking cleanly and have good shape and duration.  Size is waist high and above.  Outside there are waves - some break and some don't.  SUPs seem to have the advantage here so if you are surfing, sit inside and take off there.  Good size shore pound as well.  Nice for the handplane or boogie board.  Sandy bottom side only please.

New pulse from the South kicking in and delivering today.  Sunny skies, a bit of NW wind and morning temp of 57F makes this a great day.  Take your best shot at both spots in town as waves are happening and tides are favorable for the day.

 

CHANNEL: Glistening and glassy left that is rideable and rippable today.  Plenty of face for turns and holds shape as it runs towards the beach.  On the Groin bar with size in the waist high + range.  Longboard, egg, fish or Simmons will work.  Nice shape and the bar is set.  Deeper Channel still has some waves but not working as consistently as insiders.  About 8 in the water here.  


PATCH: Plenty of smooth surf all over the region.  Inside rights have some juice with shore-pound for the body surfers and rights that are smooth and fast.  Midways and outside has peaks popping up and delivering the goods in the waist high + size.  Decent group of about 15 are on it.  Bigger boards work best outside but something shorter will work inside.

SOUTH swell remains on this beautiful Monday morning.  Fantabulous day with blue skies, sunshine, just a touch of wind, the scent of island jasmine in the air and temp clocking in at 56F and rising.  Could be the day to call in sick and get some waves.  Both spots in town are worth checking out and the morning high tide is favorable. 

 

CHANNEL: Channel is waist high this morning as the incoming tide has just peaked.  Rights just outside the Groin pole are workable into the Mali-BO region and can run all the way to the beach.  Outside, deeper left a bit cleaner but not as consistent today.  Still enough juice to get your board going down the line.  Pick your poison and board carefully and conditions will change with the tide today.  8 in the water right now. 


PATCH: Thigh to waist high outside and on the northern end this morning.  Sets come in bunches then cool off for a while.  Plenty to ride and plenty of surfers on it.  Good pod of about 20+ enjoying the waves. Inside rights working with some shore pound and rideable waves going waist high or better.  Morning high tide helping conditions.
