A High Surf Advisory means surf will be higher than normal, shore break, and dangerous currents could cause injury or death.  Surf of 8 to 12 feet is expected with the most danger during periods when the tide is highest. 

Due to the High Surf Advisory, the following are issued:

  • There are no closures at this time but be aware that beach and road closures may occur at any time.
  • Beach-goers, swimmers, and surfers should heed all advice given by ocean safety officials and exercise caution if you enter the water.
