@leesolomonbeyondweather: Here are some tips to keep you safe when the swell gets big again. Entry and exit from the water will remain much more difficult through the winter because of Kelvin waves (a surge of warm water) that can make tidal height anywhere from 1/2 foot to two feet above normal. Be sure to add these heights to the tide table you are using, since most sites don't account for them. I have a ton of information on my website for the Central Coast and Beyond.
