Montauk is showing up this morning with a legitimate 6.6-foot east swell running at 8 seconds — real size in the water, even if the shorter period keeps things punchy. The headline condition making this session work is the wind: 18 mph out of the WNW, which is textbook offshore for Montauk's east-facing breaks. Ditch Plains is getting groomed right now, and surfers willing to manage the occasional cleanup set will find genuine fun waves on offer.

The Point is also worth a serious look today. With swell direction tracking straight out of the east at 82 degrees, the angle is dialled in for that break. If you prefer a cleaner shape over the beach break energy at Ditch, the Point could be the better call this morning.

Water temperature is 55.2°F — no shortcuts on the wetsuit. Full suit, boots, gloves, and a hood are mandatory. Air temperature is matching at 54°F, so there is no warming up between sessions. Come prepared or stay home.

The honest caveat: 8-second swell means waves are stacking up close together and cleanup sets are a real possibility. Paddle fitness matters today. This is not a mellow day — but for surfers who are fit and properly geared, Montauk is delivering the goods this morning.

This is your daily Montauk surf conditions briefing — covering wave height, swell direction and period, wind, water temperature, and surf quality at Ditch Plains and the Point. Under 3 minutes. Everything you need before you go.
