Surfing Albatross

Albatross is a surf break tracked live by Surf Glyph. The report above turns the swell model — wave height, period and direction — plus wind and tide into a single glyph score, so you can tell at a glance whether it's worth paddling out.

What conditions work best at Albatross?

Offshore wind here blows from the WNW: look for a light WNW breeze or a calm morning.
