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

Clean and solid start

Hello Friends,

Swell was 2.5 metres at 14 seconds apart from the south to SE and wind was lightly offshore under mostly clear skies at 0645. Set wave faces at the point were 1.5x overhead for the already healthy crowd. Consistency seemed to be pretty good too. Sets along the beach were a similar size but the banks continue to look pretty iffy, with long rides the exception rather than the rule. I’m calling the point 8/10 and the beachy 6/10 (for lack of banks).

Tide is heading to a low at 1035.

The Bureau’s modelling has the swell dropping back into the two metre range as the day goes along. And tomorrow should be smaller again, but still with fun size waist plus sets at magnet spots. It’s set to cog down again on Thursday and be pretty small on Friday.

So get out and enjoy if you can and say hi if you see me wandering around with the camera!
