Too much south west in it today for the coast,
yesterday it was south -south west up there and it made it gusty, today would be worse.

Sandpits maybe I'd like to check it out, don't think the wind will strong enough for seven mile but I'll check that out on the way through.
What's the swell doing anyone been down yet?

Just checked Cliffy and it's huge - forget sandpits

Little Swanport

I think this will only work on a southeasterly wind. The hill is very low anything further south is in the lee of the big hill.

Talking to Buzzy he reckons it's pretty hard to get the right conditions here but worth a look as only 5 mins off the road

waves at remarkable cave solid 3 metre with wsw wind at around 20 knots swell mdirection appears to have a fair amount of west in it as waves not breaking on safety cove reef, good to look at not so hot for getting into, pity the tide was out otherwise the cave would have been booming.

Ant, Kaleb, Brett and Jez were on The SUP's.
Pretty crowded though

Bloody Sups, almost as bad as Windsurfers.
Pretty crowded but plenty of waves to be had.

Well we finished the big weekend with head high waves on Cremorne sandbar, and Cremorne point.
Everyone who SUPed caught at least 20 quality waves. There was no one else on the water , so we had a ball
