Not nice at all but if you’re extra keen

south steyne surfer

Hello Friends, Socked in at the RealSurf crows nest again this morning, but had to run to Manly so grabbed a couple pics in the rain. Water quality looks pretty bad and beachwatch is basically saying everything south of Avalon to Greenhills in the Shire is either dodgy or outright polluted. Manly lugga was pouring […]

TG’s Surf Forecast

Surf forecast issued Thursday 15 December 2016: Five day outlook for Sydney: No, it’s not ‘you’….It was hot, now it’s cold…and looks like you’ll be feeling more hotncold in the coming week. Can’t get too excited about the surf outlook…which isn’t just because I can’t go in at the moment… But hey, Christmas is coming and isn’t that enough […]

South Steine for the keen

Light but steady rain and moderate sideshore wind wasn’t deterring a few hardy types at South Steyne. Not terrific but hey there were some bumps to be caught.

Rainy, small and junky

north bondi rsl

Hello Friends, What a difference a day makes. The heat is gone and it’s raining steadily along the coast this morning. Wind at North Head was SSE at 10-12 kts as of 0700. The 0400 MHL data was showing 2.5 metres of 8-second S wind bump. Visibility was too low for pictures as I wrote […]

Heating up and only tiny at Dee Why

dy point

Hello Friends, Heading to a high of 38 today says the Bureau. At 0630 the RealSurf weather station was showing 29 degrees and wind at North Head was WNW at 9-12 kts, so yeah, it’s going to be warm. As the pictures show, there wasn’t much of anything going on at Dee Why surfwise. There […]

Busy at Northy

30 peeps jostling for the occasional waist plus bomb at Northy around 1000. tide making it a struggle but at least not as soft as curly.

Curly knee high

Another soft and gutless knee high morning at Curly. You know that it’s pretty ordinary when there are only half a dozen people in the water on a hot and sunny day.

Wind swell offering slight possibilities early

dy point

Hello Friends, At sunrise there were knee to waist high soft little wind swell waves coming into the Dee Why end of the beach. They looked to be around knee high to maybe waist. Tide’s high at 0815 so it was fat and getting fatter when I grabbed the pics. The 0400 MHL data was […]

Curly fluffy but chest high

Surprisingly fun size at Curly but the longer you watched the more obvious it was that they were really gutless and hard to catch. And when you did jag one it was a real challenge to get very far. Still it didn’t look like a bad day to be in the water even if it […]

Choppy, high tide little bumps

Hello Friends, 8-10 kts of NE wind chopping it up as of 0700 this morning. And it’s going to pick up to be 20-25 kts this afternoon. Meanwhile the MHL data from 0400 showed 1.5 metres of 11-sec period swell coming from the SSE; however, looking at it, I reckon the south is rapidly being […]
