SSE

After a couple of days of cool, stiff southerlies, the light winds and sunshine is back in town with a clean little SSE swell in tow. It's 2-3ft and mostly straight on the early low-tide but in amongst the closeouts is the odd little tube…

Magic

Lovely little swell out on the ocean this morning. Predominantly south with just enough east in it for the bombie to work its magic and push some peaks in our way. Somehow I managed to shoot a whole session…

Catch Up

It's been a little while since my last post. Been busy? Under the weather? Holiday? Yep... a little bit of all of the above. Plus, the waves have fairly lacklustre of late (except for that Saturday of the long weekend when it was cooking everywhere). Anyway, let's get caught up…

All Comers

 Cracker of a morning out on there today! Sun's shining and the waves are peaky and clean thanks to some leftover east swell and a light sou-wester. It's the kind of swell direction that opens up for all-comer from Fairy Bower to South Steyne, North Steyne to...

Encore

Early morning we had the encore of last night's sunset/moonrise show, only this time it was the moon setting in the west. There was a decent south swell running first thing this morning...

Radiance

The dawn had a special kind of radiance to it this morning. A sun rising off the ocean with an inviting warmth that had you stretching out for more rather than shielding your eyes. Even the ocean seems to have warmed...

Silver Linings

Feels like winter's come back to haunt us. While temperatures have been cool enough to roll out the puffer jacket for one more lap of the beach, one of the silver linings has been an abundance of lively swell...

Demo

The crew from McTavish Brookvale rolled out a collection of weird and wonderful boards on the grass at Queenscliff this morning. From hand-shaped Bob McTavish personal favourites to, quirky hybrid ideas...

Cabbage Tree

Cabbage Tree Bay has been in fine form the last 24 hours or so. When the wind inches around to the south-west, the ocean is almost still and spring sunshine floods over her rocks and waters, there's no better place...

Easing In

Monday's often serve up the mellowest mornings. Maybe it's a collective sleep in recovering from the weekend or perhaps the leisurely rituals take a backseat to an eagerness to get up...

Day For It

We're on a lovely run of weather for the start of spring. It's comfortable out in a tee as soon as the sun's breached the horizon and the ocean is inching up and away from what was a cooler...

Treats

This morning was a real treat out on the sand and in the water. The south swell seems to be nudging around to a more favourable direction and so a little more of it is showing up on our shores. It's a mellow two foot...

Fun

The swell's up and the temperature is down after that cool change swept through Sydney yesterday afternoon. The good news is yesterday's strong winds have cooked up a clean, consistent little...

Rollercoaster

Taster

We've got a little taster of spring/summer on offer in Sydney today. If you're lucky enough to be close to the water you'll be drawn to it this afternoon when the temp's rise up towards 30 degrees...

Almost

After yesterday's wild westerlies the weather has returned to a semblance of calm and a little south swell has slipped in overnight. If you're on a beach with a bit of exposure to the south, the waves should be shoulder-to-head-high...

Light Show

Did you catch that sunrise this morning? Wowsers! That was the best dawn light show I've seen in a long while. The sky lit up in vast swathes of vivid pinks; at one stage it was so fluorescent the clouds looked like

Springy

Sensational morning out there! It's a proper Spring day with sunshine, light winds and only the smallest bump on the ocean. Perfect conditions for a swim or a lazy paddle with the odd wave slapping the ankles.
