San Diego Surf Forecast 🌡️

Welcome to this week’s edition of The Sunday Stoke! Where we watch the swell like white on rice 🍚 or wax on a surfboard 🏄‍♂️ 

Swell Summary 🌊 This week in San Diego, surf gradually eases from this past weekend with lingering SSW swell and fading NW windswell, offering waist to chest high waves, with standout breaks hitting shoulder high early in the week. Thursday (6/26) and Friday (6/27) bring a fun bump in SSW swell, with top spots approaching head high under manageable morning winds.

Blue = Poor | Green = Average | Orange = Good

North County Report 🌊 

Best Bet ✅ Friday in North County is your best bet — a peaking SSW swell brings chest to head high sets at standout breaks, with early morning winds staying light enough for clean conditions

Worst Bet ❌ Tuesday/Wednesday have a drop off in size before things pick up later in the week. Good days for your extra foam or longboard.

South County Report 🌊 

Best Bet ✅ Friday also looks primed for the best/largest surf of the week.

Worst Bet ❌ Monday looks weakest for South breaks — fading swell and increased SW onshore winds by midday make for smaller, bumpier surf at most beach breaks.

Did you Know? 🌎️ 

The thruster (3-fin) setup, made famous by Simon Anderson in 1981, offers tight control and predictability—perfect for powerful, vertical turns. In contrast, a quad (4-fin) setup is all about speed and flow, making it a favorite for racing down the line on fast, hollow waves. Different fin setups = totally different ride vibes! 🏄‍♂️⚡️
