A few little waves around the place

    Hello Friends, Interesting. The swell modelling yesterday was pointing toward near flatness from today onward, but happily there were some little SE waves around for lucky early risers. And this was despite the high tide. Wind’s are set to stay out of the northerly quarters (NW early, then going NE and picking up […]

Clean and waves to start

    Hello Friends, Beautiful morning with fun looking little SE swell at Dee Why. According to the MHL buoy, it’s mainly out of the SE at about 1.5 metres and 9 seconds apart. Low tide’s at 0950 and it comes in a metre or so to be high at 1600. Should be sunny and […]

A few left in the locker

Hello Friends A few waves to be had at spots that LIKE SE swell. According to the MHL data, the average height of the swell is around 1.5 metres and the average period is sitting on 9 seconds. There were very small waves at Dee Why point, but up to chest high faces along the […]

Grey skies and glassy little waves

    Hello Friends, As expected, the swell has dropped quite a bit overnight, but it’s far from flat. Coming from the SE at about 1.5 metres and with a period of 9 seconds, waves are in the chest high range along Dee Why beach and mostly a bit smaller for the healthy crew at […]

Another morning with waves at south spots

Hello Friends, Swell’s dropped quite a bit since yesterday morning. But it’s still close to 2 metres at sea with an average period of 9 seconds and, happily, the primary direction is more around to the SE. And that ought to open up a few more possibilities around the place. Wind was light and out […]

On the fade…

Hello Friends, Grey skies and only light breezes around this morning. The long slow decline of the SE swell continues. There were fewer people in the water at Dee Why as a result. The point was empty and the only keen punters were on that peak north of the club. After a long wait, I […]

Well, whadya know…

    Hello Friends, Well how ’bout that? Little waves to be had on Saturday morning thanks to a fortuitous change to the primary swell direction. It came around to the SE overnight and as the day got started the average height at sea was a touch under the two metre mark with a useful […]

Fadng but clean and fun looking for the early

Hello Friends, Light westerly winds and a weakening SE swell combined with a high tide at 0800 to deliver somewhat slow but nicely shaped waves at Dee Why. Seemed to be quite a wait between sets. But I did see fun looking ones at both the point and along the beach right on the high […]

PICS: Longy to Dee Why Centre, Mon 14 June (0915-1030)

The holiday weekend swell hung in for Sydney surfers right through Monday. I scoped a few shooting opportunities before deciding to do a bit of lens work near the Long Reef lagoon entrance. After awhile it looked as though the wind might mess it up, so I moved down toward Dee Why centre/No Mans to […]

More waves for Monday

Hello Friends, Swell has weakened a bit overnight, but the direction has moved closer to the SE, so that should see it getting into at least as many places as yesterday. The wind wasn’t doing much for the early, and despite the chilly temps, there were lots and lots of folks having a go along […]
