"Stay happy and you'll be perfectly fine" - Jack Norris

Briefly sunny and pumping this morning

Hello Friends,

Brilliant looking conditions as Monday got started. Definitely for the fit and experienced only out at the point. Wave faces were anywhere from head high to double, maybe double plus on the bombs. Swell is out of the SE at 11 seconds apart with a height at sea of 3 metres (up to 5 metres when you add in the seas).

Not super crowded at the point, but you won’t be Robinson Crusoe either.

Wind is going to be southerly 15-20 kts soon (it was SW for the early sesh) and then will be SE in the evening. Showers are coming along later too.

Tide was high at 0805 and the low will arrive at 1330.

This morning’s swell models are saying it should kick along at a little below the current size through to Saturday. I went shooting Saturday and yesterday at the point, and I may just take a few more snaps today.

Have yourself a fantastic Monday and take care if you’re getting in.
