The northerly wind is up early again and far too choppy in the Bay. Tallows is the best bet today for some 2ft wind peaks. Check Coastalwatch for updated swell forecasts.

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!
