Pretty skies, little clean waves

Doing the Manly to Dee Why jaunt, so herewith a few snaps. Manly was not super busy given how approachable the conditions were. It was glassy with waist to chest high sets along 0830. Waves were pretty soft, so not a day for the high performance option in your quiver. South end of Curly was […]

Saturday throws the switch to sunshine

Hello Friends, Had to run the odd errand around midday and since I was out and about I checked the surf again. There sitll aren’t any waves to speak of at Dee Why or Manly for that matter, but both mid to south Curly and North Narrabeen had a few very soft knee to waist […]

Smoky Sunday surf

Hello Friends, Checked beaches from Manly to Dee Why this smokey morning and as of 0730-0800 the 10-sec 1.6 metre SSE swell was producing consistent chest to head plus wave faces at optimally aligned stretches. Biggest was Curly, but Longy was in the same league (see pics). Manly and Dee Why beach and the point […]

Dropped by Curl Curl right on lunch time on the last day of January. It was hot and sunny and hard to get a park, so the water was pretty busy. But there were a few little waves to be had on the sets. Water’s beautiful too!

Found myself out and about this morning, so swung by Curly to see if it was picking up anything. It was, sorta, but just in the middle where the little windswell was focussing on a high tide friendly bank.

Went for a quick sesh at north Curly this morning. Crowd thickened up steadily because it was really a pretty fun little peak between 0830 and 1000. Here’s a taste of the conditions…

Curly and Dee Why on Weds morning

Hello Friends, Up earlier than usual this am for a run to Brookie. So I stopped at Curly and Dee Why on the way back to RealSurf HQ. Tide was coming into the high at 0710, so it was as fat and full as it’s going to get today. There were some shoulder plus faces […]

A few waves around this morning

After filing the report this morning, I made the run to Manly and on the way back, checked out Freshie, Curly and Dee Why. Freshwater had a couple of little now and again sort of peaks in the waist to waist plus range. I was tempted, but decided to push on to Curly. Swell was […]
