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

Sunday somewhat surfable

Hello Friends and Happy Father’s Day fellow Dads,

Swell has dropped quite a bit and there are still isolated showers about. But the wind was light early and high tide is behind us for the day. Sets at the point were in the waist to chest plus range and along the beach there seemed to be a few bigger ones, but it was looking pretty scrappy. And the water still looks dodgy to me although beachwatch says it’s all good.

Energy levels seem likely to fade away today and next week is shaping up to be a string of rest days.

Have yourself a great Sunday!

Tide was high at 0620 and will be low at 1215
