Junky but clean. 10 September 2015 Today’s title seems a contradiction of terms.  The waves looked junky but in the southern corners they were clean.  There were a few gems to be had but you had to be selective with most shutting down.  Some said it was hard work and...

Straight 9 September 2015 Although it has picked up considerably the swell direction is a little straight for most of the Northern Beaches.  These south swells just limit the number of breaks for surf able waves.  Combined with a stiff and cool WSW wind the quality is...

Cool and small. 8 September 2015 2 things have dropped this morning.  The temperature is down, making my selection of board shorts and thongs on the sand a wrong one and the wave size is down as well, to around 1 – 2 foot (just 2 foot).  But the westerly wind is...

Groms, peaks and barrels 7 September 2015. There were some nice and clean little peaky waves on offer along the Northern Beaches this morning.  There seems to be a little mix of the left overs from the south swell and a little peaky NE wind swell.  Lots of fun to be...

Slowing down. 3 September 2015 The swell is slowing down this morning and is only in the chest high range and filling fast with the high tide around midday.  The conditions were good with an increasing sou west wind early but with the filling waves you may need to...

On and on.. 2 September 2015 We have had a good run of swell and this looks like continuing into the early part of the weekend. Waves this morning are in a similar range to yesterday but it looks like dropping into this afternoon.  But wait until Friday where there...

Spring waves. 1 September 2015 What a great first day of Spring.  Beautiful sunshine, a light offshore breeze and waves in the head high to overhead range.  When I first checked it out I thought it was around the 2 – 3 foot mark but as the morning progressed the...

Different directions… 31 August 2015. Mrs SPoY and I went in different directions to just change it up a bit this morning.  I decided to head into @kluge_photo territory further north up the Northern Beaches and @mrsspoy down to Curly to capture the spray, which...

Lulling. 28 August 2015 The swell has dropped a little this morning but there are still plenty of waves around.  You may now need to find a southern corner to surf as the west sou wester blew in fairly strong around 8.30am.  The waves are still in the 3 – 4 foot...

Overhead.. 27 August 2015 The waves are in the overhead size and there were some nice barrels to be had at Dee Why Point this morning.  I hear that there were waves all over the Northern Beaches as the ESE swell direction is suitable for lots of places.  The wind is...
