Hello Friends,
A sunny, warm day with 1.3 metres of 7 to 8 second east wind swell wafting into the beaches. Some of the sets looked to be into the shoulder high range, but there’s not much in between. Tide is low at 0925 and will be back to a moderate 1.3 metre high at 1520. Water’s on 23C.
Wondering about the weekend surf prospects – and beyond? Then you’re in luck, because the mighty Goat has rolled blessed us with his deep surf wisdom.
Go well with your Friday one and all, and pack that mask!
