Ah the South End... where the action is intense and frantic. A hundred swimmers in pink caps, the clubby crew doing in's & out's, the body surfers and the dippers and, when the conditions are
Read MoreThere's change in the air... after a weekend of warm weather and northerly winds, the stillness of dawn this morning was hinting that today had a different story to tell. Around 6am a light puff
Read MoreGood morning and a very happy Friday to you. It's a nice one out there; full sunshine (now), light winds and a little bit of NE wind swell filtering onto our sandbanks.
Read MoreThere was something about the light this morning. Maybe theres a bit of dust in the air defusing the light, or maybe it's pollution. Whatever it was, we had a brief reprieve from the harsh light of
Read MoreWhile we're out hunting waves on days like this, there's a huge group of people finding pleasure in the simply act of swimming. The Bold & Beautiful Swimmers have been donning their pink
Read MoreThe waves are on the cook in Manly this morning. The low pressure system that dumped a month of rain on Sydney during the week has shifted gear and is now busy pushing pulses of East swell
Read MoreYesterday was a wild one! We had everything from crazy lightning strikes to an early evening "shark encounter", all to the backdrop of wild winds and a months worth of rain in 90 minutes.
Read MoreCatch that sunrise this morning? I missed the deep pink at the heart of it and just made it to the beach as the sun rose up in to some heavy clouds. I might have missed the early colour but what
Read MoreA forecast of 5-6ft of SSE swell and a grooming Sou-Wester is reasonable grounds to set the alarm a little earlier than usual and buy some over-time in the line up.
Read MoreGood Afternoon from Bond Eye Beach. I like coming over this side of the city, there's always something going on. The sand's bright white and without the Norfolk pines there's a full sky of
Read MoreApologies for the radio silence, I've been in hiding out down the South for the last couple of days. Disappearing down south definitely has it's advantages; pristine bush camping, all-time
Read MoreOh boy, it's a beautiful day out there! Sun's out, the water's warm (relatively) and there's waves a plenty. I guess the swell's got a fair bit of east direction in it as it was just as big, if not bigger,
Read MoreThere's a chill in the air out on the sand this morning. I didn't hit the water but if it's anything like yesterday's dip in sea-temp then we'd be right back where we were in winter. Suit up, rug up!
Read MoreThis morning's been a mixed bag. First a light nor-wester was neatly fanning the lips of a healthy NE swell, then the clouds and mist rolled in proceeded by a stiff southerly change…
Read MoreThis morning's sunrise trumped even yesterday's bright burn of colour. It was a good one! Probably the best I've seen in a while, you had to be up early though.
Read MoreHope you made it up in time to get a glimpse of the sunrise this morning. It was a classic spring sunrise with a full sky of colour from horizon to horizon; there must be a change in the weather
Read MoreIt's another fine day out there with buckets of sunshine and minimal surf. Feels like we're having a good run of sunny days but a little while since we had a decent bump of swell.
Read MoreThe sunrise is back in fashion this morning! We had a two stage rise; once as it rose over the horizon and another as it pushed through some broken clouds. It was a good one...
