Definitely a few little waves around this morning
Hello Friends,
A sunny start to Monday and we have waist to chest high wave faces along the beach and knee to waist plus (but less consistent) at the point. It looked a bit tide affected at 0800 when I grabbed the snaps and they were mostly sectiony and shutting down.
Out at sea the swell was 1.6 metres at 9-10 seconds from the SSE (156°). The models say we can expect it to drop slowly across the day and to maybe still be surfable tomorrow. Beyond that it’s shaping to marginal to near flat by Friday.
Go well, stay safe, get the vax (assuming you can) and take the mask when you go out!
