Freshy and Curly pics

freshwater beach surfing

The cast is off and I’m driving again, so herewith a few pics from this morning’s Manly run. Cute little lines in the waist plus range on sets at both Freshy and Curl Curl this morning. Wish I coulda joined them with my mal.

We’re still small in Sydney

dy beach

Hello Friends, Ankle to knee plus at Dee Why beach this morning thanks to a metre of 7-sec E wind bump. Wind was light and skies were sunny as the tide was coming into the 1230 high. Beachwatch says the water temp’s 19 and that wind should stay offshore from the west to SW – […]

Marginal conditions at Dee Why this morning

dy point

Hello Friends, Just a hint of swell this morning at Dee Why. As expected yesterday’s residual swell energy has dropped down another notch and as of 0700 when I grabbed the picture, it was ankle to knee with maybe the odd waist bump. Surface conditions were nice and smooth under gloomy grey skies. Tide is […]

Hooray waves still coming in this morning

DY point surfing

Hello Friends, Wind was light from the west under sunny skies at Dee Why this morning – and there were still waves from the pulse that filled in yesterday afternoon. Swell was 1.5 metres from the SSE at 9 seconds apart. Tide’ll be high at 1045, so the incoming push is probably helping too. There […]

Monday at dusk

south Narra at dusk

Hello Friends, Well I thought it might come up a bit, but it did better than that at south Narrabeen and Collaroy. There were waves at white rock and centuries too. I didn’t see Dee Why before dark, but it woulda been reasonable all along the beach I’d have thought. From the look of the […]

In a holding pattern, dreaming of waves

lion island

Hello Friends, Weakly sunny with light westerly wind as Monday got going along the beaches of Sydney. The breeze is expected to go around to the south this afternoon. The MHL buoy was showing a metre and a bit of SSW wind bump (period’s only 6-sec) so I reckon about the best you can hope […]

Little bumps and not much more at Dee Why this morning

no mans situation

Hello Friends, Sunday sees about a metre of 9-sec SSE swell trickling into Sydney’s beaches. If you hunt around you’ll find the odd magnet spot producing knee to waist high sets. It looks as though Dee Why was at the bottom end of the range, but there should be something slightly bigger up the beach […]

Not so super Saturday

Hello Friends, When I saw the Batemans Bay buoy data last night, I got all hopeful for your prospects this morning. It was 3 metres south at close to 10 sec. Alas, as the pictures show, this morning sees only a metre of straight south at 10 seconds. There could be a few places focussing […]

Back to flat for Friday morning at Dee Why, but options elsewhere

dy beach

Hello Friends, Swell’s back to marginal to flat. The MHL buoy was seeing a metre of 14s SSE bump but where DY and south Narrabeen were concerned it was too small to surf. However those numbers are translating into knee to waist high sets at optimally exposed stretches.The Bureau expects the energy levels to go […]
