Hello Friends,

Despite being in a haze of jetlaggness yesterday, I knew the swell was going to fade fast, so I joined the large crew at Dee Why point to sample a few of the 12 sec period SE sets. This morning I won’t be in a position to repeat the experience because there’s nothing happening at the point. As expected, the swell’s faded quite a bit overnight and as of about 0700, it was out of the SSE at around the 10 second mark with an average height at sea of about a metre – half the size of yesterday. Tide’s heading to low at about 1215. Skies should be sunny all day and the wind should stay offshore.

So get out there and enjoy because tomorrow looks like being smaller again and by Thursday we could be into a week plus of flatness on the east coast.

Go well!
