"Stay happy and you'll be perfectly fine" - Jack Norris

Blue sky Saturday

Such a beautiful morning, but so marginal.

Hello Friends,

Small but perfectly formed is your best hope this morning at Sydney’s south facing beaches.

A few bods splashing about at Dee Why as we approach high tide. Could be fun with the right equipment, peak and attitude. Biggest set I saw while waiting to snap the picture was around the waist high mark on take off. I’d be taking the mal or the fishy this morning and looking at those bits of beach best exposed to the south.

Swell, such as it is, is coming from the south at a metre or so and 7 to 8 seconds apart. Not what you’d call powerful.

Wind should be light and offshore this morning beore gradually swinging around to a standard issue NE seabreeze.

Have yourself a good Saturday one and all!
