DAILY POSTS

The weekend came good in the end and yesterday was about as good a day as you could ask for. Sunshine, a fun little ENE swell, offshore winds and cool vibes in town thanks to the Manly Jazz Festival lineup.

Things are settling down on the weather front, the wind's dropped and the showers are easing. The change has made for a calmer ocean state with a more organised swell out of the nor'east. It's still pretty rough…

We're in for a couple of days of strong northerlies, not great for surfing 'round these parts. There's showers and rain in the forecast so it's not going to be amazing beach weather all round. The good news is…

Twenty days into SurfAid's Make A Wave and this morning was looking like one of the more challenging days to hit that obligation and go surf. The forecast had numbers below 1ft and a stiff offshore breeze so a dead f

Monday mornings are easy enough to snooze through at the best of times. And, after a weekend of fun little waves and incredible weather you'd be forgive for hitting snooze a couple of times today. If you did make…

The wind was rattling in form the nor'east this morning. It was looking a far cry from the classy offshore conditions we've been enjoying so far this week. We had a good run. But, like all good things, they must…

ook a little while but the sun eventually emerged and it's turned into a cracker of a day out there. We've got a bit of leftover swell, heaps of sunshine and just a puff of wind out of the east. A pleasant mix…

Yesterday was good and I reckon today's maybe just a tad better. Although, truth is, it probably depends on whether you had a little bit of luck on your side. Either way, we've got good waves…

After a weekend of stiff onshore's the wind's come good just in time for the working week. But the working week ain't what it used to be because come 8 o'clock it just gets busier these days. Everyone I know must…

Another mellow morning out on the beach. The sky is a blanket of still grey clouds and the ocean it's blue grey mirror. We've got a peaky little NE swell making for fun lefts and rights the full length of the beach.

This morning didn't look like much, a reasonably sleepy ocean state, grey sky and passing showers. But in the spirit of Make-A-Wave's pledge to surf everyday in September, I jumped in the rip at North Steyne…

It's the last day of winter and it's an absolute cracker out there! Clear blue skies, sunshine and pristine conditions on the ocean. Hang around long enough and even the sun's got a little more warmth…

Happy Monday to you. It's the last Monday of the winter season and it's starting to feel a little like spring already. The cool sou'westerly wind of winter has been replaced by a warmer nor'easterly this morning. Not ideal…

Bit cool and grey out on the sand this morning. Still, there's fun little waves about and conditions are silky smooth. Those that roused themselves out of bed and into the steely grey ocean would be feeling pretty…

Hello. Hi. How you doing? It's been a little while... hope you've been keeping well.

Monday morning's can fall into two categories; the ones where you hit snooze, roll over and crawl feebly into the week, or those where you bounce out of bed rubbing your hand together ready to get stuck into the week…

It's the swell that keeps on giving. This morning we've got sunshine, a light sou'westerly offshore and a decent combo of swells rolling in from the south and east-south-east. It's been a great week of waves on The Beaches…

How about this run of waves! It's been good; really good! And reasonably user friendly with not too much water moving and plenty of lulls for the paddle outs. You could paddle out a novice and find yourself standing…
