Calming… 15 February 2017 The wind and waves have calmed down this morning to a much slower pace.  There is still a southerly air stream but it is fairly light and even the northern ends are rideable. For the biggest waves in this southerly swell try and find a...

Valentine lump…. 14 February 2017 We hope that you received your Valentine’s Day gift at home,  as you won’t find any gems out in the surf this morning.  The wind is fairly strong from the east and is fully onshore for most beaches.  As a result...

Cool and Waves 13 February 2017 Right, we are back to normal conditions and they are most welcome.  The temps are down to around 20C and the waves are up to around 3 to maybe 4 foot from the south this morning.  It is FAB down the beach, so go for a surf. Lifeline...

Crank the AC 10 February 2017 I’m sure you have spoken with someone this morning about how hot it’s going to get this weekend.  So to give you an idea if you have been out of state…. here are some numbers… today 38C, tomorrow 39C and Sunday...

Biggest so far…. 9 February 2017. Yesterday’s strong on shore has brought in a new easterly swell this morning.  It was a touch bigger yesterday evening but it has eased this morning due to the high tide.  Plenty of waves but they weren’t  breaking...

Let me take you back…. 3 February 2017 I’m sure you are sick of our current weather and surf conditions on the Northern Beaches.  The surf hasn’t risen above 3 foot for months and the air temperatures have yoyed hot and cool daily.  So get set for...

8.15am blow in 2 February 2017 If you had decided to sleep in and go for a surf when the tide was higher…. don’t bother.  A strong southerly wind blew in at around 8.15am and just destroyed the small waves on offer at most, if not all Northern Beaches....

#SouthCurly 1 February 2017 Never has a southerly change been so welcome as yesterday.  The good thing was we didn’t have to swelter a full day of 38C.  Even the rain this morning is a blessing.  The wind is still out of the south but it is fairly light and its...

Rookie error 31 January 2017 Don’t you hate it when you plan to shoot in the water and you find out later that you had it on manual focus rather than auto.  So a few of my pics this morning are semi out of focus.  I managed to tweek them a little, but it was a...
