The Goat’s Surf Forecast

Surf forecast issued Thursday 6 February 2025: Seven day outlook for Sydney

With everyone back at school now, the surf at places open to the south, was decidely less crowded today.

Brilliant blue skies and sunshine and enough waves to keep the most active ones in the water happy.

Sensational water temp (25) and air temp (25-28) too.

Gentle breezes for most of the day to keep the air feeling refreshing (Nature’s Natural Air Conditioner)…

Shady trees to sit back under and chill out (Nature’s Natural UV Filter)…

Toss in the mesmerising murmur of the waves carried on the breeze (Nature’s Natural Reality Check and BS Of The World Filter)

Perfect day. 🙂
