Saturday fun day

Hello Friends,

Beautiful Saturday morning in Sydney and as an extra bonus, we have a few small SSE waves too. Nothing big, but the period was a reasonable 11 seconds or so and that means the occasional chest high set turning up at spots such as Dee Why that like the swell direction. The models say that the swell should pick up a little as the day goes along, so with luck, by lunch there could be the odd head high bomb at the exposed spots.

Outlook is for the swell to fade overnight and leave us only a few minor scraps tomorrow. It then looks as though next week will be pretty small to flat until the next pulse comes in around Wednesday.

So get out and enjoy your Saturday!

Tides: H @0900, L @1515
