Surprise jump
Most of you who checked the surf this morning would have been surprised that the swell has jumped up a foot or two from yesterday. The south swell is a nice 2 – 4 foot with the bombies capturing a little more size. Swell is still from the south and there are a few straight ones but if you’re pat...

Dredging
It’s a cracking day out there. The sun is out and people are on the beach in droves. Waves are in the 2 – 3 foot range but it is super busy out there. As I’ve said before, it’s like no-one is working and everybody is surfing. Add school holidays into the mix and it’s difficult to social di...

South and straight
The swell has jumped up overnight. It’s in the 3 – 4 foot range and fairly south. The wind has dropped a little from yesterday, making for calmer surface conditions. It will swing around from the south later this morning and it will be southern ends for the cleanest conditions. You may need to s...

Chunky
The swell is a little bigger this morning and is a solid 4 foot. The direction is a little more east and on the whole it’s fairly chunky out there. Especially on the downward tide. There is a lot of water movement and with the offshore breeze it’s chunky. For me it was a little straight where I ...

Chilly Spring
We thought winter was over with the hot weekend just gone. But this week the south westers have come in from the mountains and it’s a chilly mid September Spring day. I think it was 11C early this morning but the sun popped it’s head over the clouds and it soon warmed up to 14C. There is a mid s...

It’s RUOK day today and I thought that I would mention this very important subject. Especially in these current times and events. I know there are a lot of people doing it tough out there. Your family, your loved ones and businesses could all be experiencing hard times. Don’t keep it to yourself...

On the downward
The waves have slowed a little. There are still some solid ones, but nowhere near that of yesterday’s great conditions. Still plenty of waves around the Northern Beaches to be had though. There was some suggestion of swell marching up the coast but I think it marched straight on by. Lets see what ...

Wow the waves are on the pump all over the place. You just got to know where to look. Mrs SPoY was on the lens and grabbed a bag full. Surfers, dolphins, foilers you name it. . It is an epic day and the land and water photogs were having a ball. I’m sure you will see these waves for day...

Wow the swell has jumped up overnight and will continue to build during today. It will ease into tomorrow, but there will be still some size for the next few days. It is a solid south swell coming in at around 4 – 6 foot. The wind is a chilly south wester coming off the snowy mountain giving us a ...

Belinda gone too soon
I want to dedicate this post to a friend of mine, Belinda Myers. She built the Surf Photos of You website. She was a lovely person and was generous with her time for us and I’m sure others. She loved to surf. Her passing has shocked everyone, Mrs SPoY and I included . I have quite a few pics of he...

And it continues.
There will be waves all the way into next week. That Low Pressure system hasn’t quite moved off yet and is producing some solid south swell. Although it will be easing into the weekend there will be some nice waves around. It makes a change from the flat spell that we had over the last couple of w...
