Hello Friends,
A sunny but hazy Tuesday morning along the beaches. Alas, there are no waves at Dee Why, so you’ll need to look elsewhere to get wet. The swell at sea is 1.4 metres with a mix of 7 and 11 second components. Dominant direction was 163°. Better exposures should be in the knee to waist plus range with the odd shoulder high bomb. Ocean is still on 21C and first tide of the day is a swampy 1.77 metre high at 0810. The low will drain out to 0.3 metres at 1415.
Go well everybody!
