Morning Update....If anything it has got even smaller during the morning, it is only in the 0-1ft range on the more open beaches now. Very light SSW winds now, that are forecast to go SW to strengthen from the NNW later. The tide is dropping to a low at 11.35am. The Tweed Coast, D'bah, the far N end beachies and TOS picking up a bit more of the S swell, but it is barely ripple riding this morning. Take a board with lots of foam.
John Charlton spreads his time between the Gold & Sunshine Coasts. He’s been surfing this area for many a year and is totally in tune with all the different breaks and how the varying swell and wind patterns affect this wave plentiful region.

Surfing Mums meet here!
Surfing mums is a network of women who surf and are mums (of course), but what sets them apart is that they still want to surf as much as we did before they had kids. Its not about how well you surf, or if you are a long boarder, short boarder, bodyboarder, body surfer or learning to surf. It's about getting wet and having fun!
