Very small Dee Why for Sunday

Hello Friends, Light NW wind was blowing across a near flat sea on Sunday morning. Skies were clear and temps mild, but you’re going to have to be a real optimist. An incoming tide is heading to its 1.5m peak at 1020, so there’s another issue. Dee Why’s not happening, but if you have something […]

Surf report

Earlier, at the right tide, it was Saturday:around 1, 1+ metre South East with an occasional slightly bigger one from time to time

Curly Saturday 1115

Busy as you’d expect on a Saturday with glassy conditions and sunny skies and waist high faces. Very soft and pretty inconsistent but if you were in the spot there were moments of fun on the 1 to 2-turn waves.

Don’t bother now…you’ve missed it

Sunny, offshore, micro

Hello Friends, Chill to the air and a steady westerly blowing under clear skies when your correspondent climbed aloft to have a look at the ocean for the first time this morning.

Focus at Curly

Manly baaically flat but Curly picking up chest plus sets for 20 lucky punters at 0900

Surfing could be a challenge

Hello Friends, Chilly start to Thursday along the beaches. Skies are clear early and the wind is WNW. The ocean looked close to flat at Dee Why, although the MHL buoy off Sydney was detecting 1.2 metres of 9 second SSE swell. I couldn’t see anyone in the water at 0700. At 0730 the tide […]
