Offshore and warm

report - 1.5m SW Swell. 10 - 15 kt North wind. 1.00pm high

yesterday was the day, if you managed to find the right bank at high tide. Light, warm offshores all day, with pretty much the right swell height for good waves around Sth Arm. Its smaller today, but the north end of beaches are still picking enough swell for the odd decent ride. Its still offshore right now.

Reports have come in of nice banks and head high waves at the south facing locations on the Tasman, with similar conditions for tomorrow expect some crowds around.

Enjoy the warmth.

weekend onshores

report - 3-4m SW swell. Very strong w - sw winds. 1.15 pm low

the swell is on the increase. Unfortunately after quite a good week its been onshore all weekend.
Also doesnt look like getting big enough for the points. maybe some small ones if lucky.

The winds are looking better for Tuesday and wed so hopefully the swell will hang around a bit. The tides are also favourable for morning waves this week.

now that winter is approaching the amount of people in the water is getting less and less, but whilst the air is cool, water temps are still ok. No need for the hoods etc just yet.
