Really tiny but every now and then a bump arrives
Hello Friends, As of 0600 the MHL buoy was showing less than a metre of 10-sec south swell. An hour later at North Narrabeen it looked to be around the knee high mark and quite inconsistent for the handful of keen folk in the water. Around at the Long Reef to Dee Why stretch everybody […]
Little bumps
Hello Friends, Looks like little waves this morning in the knee to waist and a bit range at Dee Why. There were a few longboarders hanging out at the point where they were jagging the very occasional soft looking slider. Up the beach it was similarly low key but maybe a touch bigger on the […]
TG’s Surf Forecast from Afar
Surf forecast issued Thursday 10 August 2017: Seven day outlook for Sydney: From the wilds of Mullumbimby on the Far North Coast where TG has his long range over the horizon binoculars out, to see what’s coming your way and his… Managed to jag a little wave at Byron yesterday before the swell started to […]
Waves to be had this morning
Hello Friends, Light WNW winds at daybreak and signs of lines at the point and along the beach. There’s about 1.7 metres of 9-second SE swell to start the day. The Bureau is predicting that the energy levels will weaken as the day goes along. A 1.45m high tide at 0955 isn’t likely to help […]
Curly and Dee Why on high tide
At 0900 tide was getting close to high and it wasn’t helping the waves at Curl Curl. Yes the faces were up to chest high or better but they were so fat people just couldn’t get into em. The action shot below was taken just off the sand where for a few seconds it briefly […]
Little lines and small waves early
Hello Friends, Chilly 10kt westerly when I climbed aloft for a look at the surf situation. After starting the day like a millpond, by dusk there were head high sets at the point and maybe a touch bigger on the bombs up the beach. It got to about 2.5 metres out at sea on the […]
Like a lake
Hello Friends, Not a hint of a wave at Dee Why this morning. Just about perfect flatness really. The Bureau says the swell should come up dramatically this morning as it swings from the current sub-one metre N wind bump to 1.5-2.5m from the south. Wasn’t a hint to be seen at 0800. I’ll be […]
Another quiet day along the beaches
Hello Friends, No surfing for Dee Why or Collaroy-Narrabeen this morning. Basically there’s just a metre of 5-6 sec period east wind bump and that’s all. A low is expected to form off to the SE of us in the next 24 hours, so swell should go around to the south and gradually pick up […]
Day of rest
Hello Friends, Wind whistling through the rigging at RealSurf HQ from early. At 0900 the skies were clear and said wind was out of the north at 10-15 kts. As the pictures show, there was only a hint of a line coming into Dee Why. Even if the wind wasn’t doing its thing, there’d be […]
Look around to find a little something
Hello Friends, Clear skies, winter chill, light NW wind and a tiny, sub-1 metre 12-sec SE swell coming in as the Saturday got started. Tide was a 1.3 metre high at 0640 and is now dropping to the low at 1220. It was too small to surf from Collaroy to North Narrabeen, although there was […]
