SSE Saturday

Hello Friends, The SSE wind was blowing 15-20 kts from before sunrise. It was overcast and out at sea the MHL buoy was seeing 1.7 metres of 9-sec bump from the SSE (160°). Tide was building to a swampy 1.8 m at 0905. And there’s a 40% chance of a shower. Lovely. Outlook broadly speaking […]

South Narra and Longy this morning

Wind starting to chew up the fat and small conditions by 0930 when I dropped by south Narra and Longy for a look. Here’s what I saw…

Really busy at spots with waves

Hello Friends, Good Friday sees it very small at Dee Why. It’s a beautiful morning though and there are little waves where the combo south and north swells are synthesizing into knee to waist high bumps. But looking at the cams, it is very crowded wherever there’s anything remotely catchable. Dee Why’s not on the […]

TG’s Easter Surf Forecast

Surf forecast issued Thursday 29 March 2018: Seven day outlook for Sydney: A chill out Easter weekend ahead for you :).. Which may be just what you need.  Perhaps a little time for reflection too.  The change of season always seems to do that to me…remembering and being grateful for the good times and laughs, […]

Micro to flat this morning

Hello Friends, Just about totally flat everywhere I looked on the 1.8 m morning high tide. A beautiful day for the beach otherwise with light winds, warm water and sunny skies. Out at sea the swell was coming from the east. It was about a metre out there and the period was 7 seconds. So, […]

Fat and full for the early, maybe later

Hello Friends, Went down to the beach to see if I could grab a few snaps of some friends playing in the shories near Kiddies.  There are little waves (at 0700 the MHL buoy was showing 1.6 metres from the ESE at 11 seconds) but the 1.76 m high tide at 0635 was killing it. […]

Clean little lines

Hello Friends, Cloudless skies and a light west wind this morning at daybreak. Feels like autumn. Swell has moved around more to the south overnight and as of 0500 was 1.5 m and coming mainly from 159° (although there was still some small, longer period component out of the NE). The odd nice looking line […]

Pics from midday Monday south of Gardens

Decided it was too small to go for a surf at Dee Why after seeing it this morning. Unbeknownst to me, the weak swell was focusing at various points along the Narrabeen to South Narrabeen stretch – a fact I discovered when I went for a bike ride around lunchtime (with a wetty and my […]

Clean but nearly flat this morning

Hello Friends, Perfect conditions this morning, but only the barest hint of swell showing at Dee Why. If you waited long enough – and were in exactly the right spot – there were knee to waist high one-wave sets. But in between those widely scattered and infrequent moments, it looked like a lake., And the […]
