Effective: Mon November 3, 2025, 1:23 PM
Expires: Tue November 4, 2025, 3:00 AM

* WHAT...For the first High Surf Advisory, large breaking waves of 10 to 14 feet with dangerous rip currents. For the second High Surf Advisory, large breaking waves of 15 to 18 feet, with local sets to 20 feet possible, and dangerous rip currents. For the Coastal Flood Advisory, moderate coastal flooding possible. Breaking waves at Morro Bay are possible for the second High Surf Advisory. * WHERE...San Luis Obispo County Beaches and Santa Barbara County Central Coast Beaches. Largest surf focused across west facing beaches. * WHEN...For the first High Surf Advisory, until 3 AM PST Tuesday. For the second High Surf Advisory, from 12 AM PST Thursday to 6 PM PST Friday. For the Coastal Flood Advisory, from 4 AM Thursday to 2 PM PST Friday. * IMPACTS...For the High Surf Advisory, there is an increased risk for ocean drowning. Rip currents can pull swimmers and surfers out to sea. Large breaking waves can cause injury, wash people off beaches and rocks, and capsize small boats near shore. For the Coastal Flood Advisory, flooding of sea water is likely, around the time of high tide, over vulnerable low- lying coastal areas such as parking lots, beaches, and walkways. Significant damage to roads or structures is NOT expected. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...High tides between 6.9 to 7.1 feet are expected between 9 and 1030 AM both Thursday and Friday.

Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone property. Do NOT drive around barricades or through water of unknown depth. Remain out of the water due to dangerous surf conditions, or stay near occupied lifeguard towers. Rock jetties can be deadly in such conditions, stay off the rocks.

The times presented here are based upon the solunar theory, which is the idea that the movements of fish and other animals are affected by the location of the sun and moon. The major periods are believed to be the times of the greatest animal activity and occur when the moon is directly overhead or underfoot (lunar transits). The minor periods also see increased activity and occur when the moon is rising or setting. The strongest activity occurs during full or new moons, and the weakest during quarter or three quarter moons. This is indicated by the Action Rating.
