BOB FREEMAN’S WEEKEND SURF REPORT

By  //  March 28, 2015

Waves are looking mostly unrideable this morning. Late-morning's lower tide could help make the small waves more rideable by then. Surfers seeking an early morning surf session may want to focus on Cocoa Beach's northernmost beaches for a longboardable wave.
Ocean temperatures now average 72 degrees. A vest or springsuit may provide the best option against this weekend’s cooler air temps.

SURF REPORT FOR MARCH 28-29

Bob Freeman has been surfing Brevard's waves since 1966.

SATURDAY: The surf is looking mostly knee-high and chilly this Saturday morning.

Strong northwesterly winds are keeping much of the remaining groundswell well offshore.

Cleanest conditions for longboarders today are in the Cocoa Beach area.

Southernmost Brevard surf spots have surf in the thigh-high range but with more sideways drift.

SUNDAY:Sunday’s surf will build back into the thigh- to waist-high range with calmer northwesterly winds.

Ocean temperatures now average 72 degrees. A vest or springsuit may provide the best option against this weekend’s cooler air temps.
