Hello Friends,
Barely a cloud in the sky at daybreak. Wind was coming from the WNW at 11-12 kts, tide was just dropping to the low at 0910 and out at sea the swell was 1.5 metres at 8 seconds from the ENE (77°). We’re heading to a coolish high of 18C – which is slightly less than the current 19 C water temp.
Looking like fun waves for well into next week, so don’t panic if you can’t hit it today!
