4 p.m. on Sunday, 10-19-2025, I drove to the beach and the traffic was not going toward the water, but away from it. That makes me happy. Parking spaces empty.
I have decided not to brave the cold water so again I wore my wet suit and cap. Water temp about 65. Extremely low tide, just starting to turn I sensed at the end of my dip, but I didn't look at the tide times.
Mediocre surf conditions with beach-breaking waves lacking much of an angle for the 2 dozen late afternoon surfers. The highest set far out was 3 foot, I'd say. A friendly, mild 3 foot. No body smashing on this Sunday.
Glorious flat water with tons of moist sand for the children and young parents going knee deep and looking for shells and sand dollars. Almost none to be found.
No clouds overhead--really. I did see a thin layer of white cloud far in the sea to the north. As I lay on my back looking up at the small planes flying from the little Oceanside Airport, I was free of the world.
Thank you, big sky and ocean spirits!
