Surf's up, wave riders! Get ready for some epic conditions across Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands this holiday season. Mother Nature is serving up a serious swell that'll have adrenaline junkies and beach lovers buzzing.
The northern and northeastern beaches are looking at monster waves around 10 feet today, with high rip current risks that demand serious respect. San Juan, Carolina, Rio Grande, and Luquillo zones are under a High Surf Advisory until Thursday morning, so experienced surfers only need apply.
Winds are cranking from the northeast between 10 to 15 miles per hour, creating perfect conditions for advanced wave hunters. Culebra and Northwest Puerto Rico beaches are seeing particularly gnarly surf, with waves potentially reaching 8 feet on Christmas Day.
For those less experienced, listen up: these are life-threatening rip current conditions. Stay close to shore, watch for warning signs, and consider hanging with your toes in the sand instead of battling these powerful waves.
The Virgin Islands aren't sitting this party out either. St. Thomas and St. John are expecting solid 7-foot swells with high rip current risks, while St. Croix will see slightly mellower 6-foot waves.
Weekend forecast looks a bit more chill, with waves dropping to 5-7 feet and winds calming down. Mostly sunny skies with scattered showers mean you'll still get your beach time.
Bottom line: If you're not a seasoned surfer, admire these waves from the safety of the beach. Stay smart, stay safe, and enjoy the holiday surf show!
