captiva island surf forecast

Thursday:

Gulfsters: Staying small to flat.

Panhandle: Staying flat.

Looking ahead:

Gulfsters: Flat for Friday but Winds shift south and build a bit for Saturday which could kick up a little south wind swell. Winds clock around to the west, then NW and build a bit for Sunday adding a little more size. It’s probably not going to be anything major but some thigh high sets at 6-7 sec or so. We could see a few cleaner leftovers on Monday as winds shift north and then off shore but get on them while you can.

Panhandle: We have a small start for Friday and then winds turn SE for the afternoon and build possibly setting up some small short period choppy wind swell late in the day. Onshore winds and building swell continues for Saturday morning but we could see a break in the winds as the next cold front passes over later in the day giving us a window of cleaner surf. Winds turn W/NW for Sunday giving us a chance for some smaller morning leftovers that will fade as the day goes on.
