    Default Any Florida East coast locals wanna help me?

    Im planning on skimming around Melbourne on Friday but the swell isnt gonna be big at all.
    Swell info is saying that starting on Monday, some onshore winds could start cranking on the beaches around there but idk how the swell exactly works there which is why im asking if any locals could tell me whether or not theres waves on the way next week.
    Should I wait until next week to drive over to the East coast and have some luck on catching some bigger waves or just go skim friday and maybe getting lucky at sebastian with a few knee high lines?

    I live in sebastian and there has been nothing for over a week, so im thinking the best bet would be to wait til next week. But I can't predict the waves, so who knows.

    im glad you said something cause you seem to be on top of the waves the most around melbourne.
    On sebastianinletcam.com, iv seen a few waves around high tide this week that look pretty tasty so i might be out there around the afternoon during incoming tide for a session.

    Hey guys.. I'm from NJ and I'm heading down to Melbourne for my sisters wedding in two weeks. Can you guys fill me in on tides and spots down there? Never skimmed anywhere but up here at seabright and LBI.
