Surf report

Hot..quite hot..currently 37 at the beach and with humidity low cloud and WNW wind it feels intense. Nice in the water..but waves are small and will get smaller as the tide is still coming in… is it worth a hot drive to the beach? Hmm…maybe stay where you are. ..sit in the shade with a […]

Hot day ahead for Sydney

Hello Friends, NW winds foretell a hot one for Sydney. You’re coming off a low tide at 0500 and there’s about 1.3 metres of 6 second east to ese wind bump. So, surf prospects are pretty ordinary for today. In fact, my reading of the models suggests that the minor to micro short period wind […]

Surf report

Beautiful morning. Calm wind..not a cloud in the sky. Small waves around 1 m at South East spots but enough movement for fun rides with the incoming tide pushing it in at the moment. High tide at 9.25 will fill it in. Then later as it goes down there might be some possibilities. Big surf […]
