Hello Friends,
Get out there if you can. It was going off this morning as all the elements came together: light wind, 2 metres of 11 sec SE swell and sunny skies to make it all pretty like.
Extremely crowded for some odd reason, so you might want to take that into account. But on the other hand, this is the best looking morning I’ve seen in a very long time. And there should be lots of beaches lighting up.
Swell is supposed to fade this morning, but at least we’ll have an incoming tide from the low at 0940 to give a little push. The high is very small (only .5 m), And the wind isn’t supposed to be much of a factor until late afternoon when it’s set to go NE at 10-15kts.
Stay happy everyone!
Tides: low at 0940, high at 1520
