Vis: 10ft -20ft
Swell: 1-2 ft
Surface Temp: 70-74 °F

High Tide 4.2 ft ~ 2:29 pm
Low Tide 1.0 ft ~ 11:35 pm 

The water is still looking hazy, but definitely a lot less green today. Viz is sitting around 10–20 ft, and there are some cleaner pockets to be found out there. The incoming tide likely made this morning the better window for visibility.

There’s still a moderate amount of swell in the water, but overall it’s pretty manageable. Expect some surge around the more exposed spots, with calmer conditions anywhere that has a little protection.

Up top, conditions are looking nice with light onshore wind and a pretty calm surface. Generally light winds and relatively small seas along the SD coast today.

Definitely looking better than earlier this week. Still some haze, but 10–20 ft of viz with cleaner pockets mixed in. As always, dive safe!
