Tuesday tiny time at Dee Why

dy point

Hello Friends, Another beautiful morning but there’s very little energy in the system. There were a couple of bods hanging out up toward No mans, but it looked like maybe there could be sets into the knee high range. The MHL buoy was showing less than a metre of 11-sec SE bump trickling in so […]

Really tiny Monday morning

dy beach

Hello Friends, No surf prospects at Dee Why or at Collaroy-Narrabeen or over at North Bondi this morning. Beautiful day though. Wind should be light and variable this morning, but by this afternoon it’ll be NE. The MHL buoy is showing a metre of SE at 8 sec, so I suppose you might possibly find […]

Yay! Little beachies this morning

Hello Friends, Beautiful, breezily offshore start to Sunday at Dee Why – and there were fun looking little knee to waist high sets when I checked at 0830 on the dropping tide (low’s at 1040). Quite a few folk in the water along the bit of the beach I can see from the crows nest. […]

Take the longest board you have and hope for something

dy point

Hello Friends, Another beautiful morning in Sydney, but you’ll be struggling to find a wave over knee high at Dee Why beach (the point’s a write-off).  And  I’d be surprised if anywhere else was much different. There’s about a metre of 7-sec south wind swell dribbling in as we approach the low tide at 0945. […]

Tiny lines hint at a possibility or two

Hello Friends, Swell has come up just a touch from yesterday. The MHL buoy was showing a metre of 8-sec SSE windswell and wind at North Head was out of the west at 10 kts as of 0750. Tide will be high at 0845. There were no takers at the point – unsurprisingly – but […]

As foretold it’s small to flat Thursday morning

Hello Friends, The ocean’s pretty quiet this morning, in fact it looks just about flat from the RealSurf crows nest. According to the MHL data there’s only a 5-sec south wind bump washing in. The breeze is coming from the west under sunny skies. It’s supposed to get cloudy later with a slight possibility of […]
