Little bumps on Thursday
Hello Friends, A faint westerly at 0700. RealSurf HQ was socked in with fog, but looking at the MHL data from 0400 showed 1.2 metres of 11 sec bump from the SSE. Tide was low at 0440 and is currently headed to the 1.6 m high at 1105. Once the fog burns off, the wind […]
Nope, not this morning you aren’t
Hello Friends, 12-17 kts of southerly wind under grey skies as Wednesday kicked off. Out at sea there was a 1.5 metre mixture of NNE and SE wind bump (average period was around 7 seconds). Tide was running into a swampy 1.65 m high at 1030. Ocean’s on 19C and we’re headed to a high […]
Tiny Tuesday tiddlers

At 0730 skies were partly cloudy and wind was coming faintly from the NE, texturing the surface slightly. Tide was coming into a 1.6 m high at 0955. At 0500 the MHL buoy […]
Swell fading fast
Hello Friends, Partly cloudy skies this morning with a light NW breeze texturing the rapidly declining 1.3 m 12-sec SSE swell.

Sunday morning surfin’
Hello Friends, Shoulder plus faces on sets this morning at Dee Why. Before 0900 the wind was coming lightly from the west. It should swing around to the SE soon, but with luck it won’t blow too hard. Swell’s about 2.5 metres out at sea and coming from the SSE at about 13 seconds apart. […]
Blowy and messy morning
Hello Friends, Rain overnight but it seemed to be clearing this morning. Sadly the surf situation is not terribly interesting. The SE wind blew all night and as Saturday started it was 10-15 kts from the SE. There is swell but as the pictures show, the surface conditions are pretty bad. Out at sea swell […]
Guethary on the pump!
The surf at Guethary is big again today. Our run of swell continues. When the swell is up this break is not for the faint hearted. It is a shifting peak that breaks in deep water over a large area. Very easy to find yourself in the wrong spot and getting cleaned up. […]
Clean lines
Hello Friends, Mainly sunny skies over the beaches as Friday got started, but there looked to be a fair amount of rain activity out at sea and the Bureau says there’s a 90% chance of showers. As the pictures show, there were clean looking lines coming into Dee Why, and there were plenty of folk […]
