Very clean early with an W offshore wind and small fun waves around. Most of the S swell is passing offshore, but there are some 2-3ft waves on the more open beaches and it's 2ft in the more protected beaches. Nice day to get out there with these types of conditions with offshore winds forecast all day. The open beaches and southern corners are the pick. Lee Winkler's Surf School - Ph 0266 5000 50.
Lee Winkler started surfing in his home town of Coffs Harbour when he was a schoolboy. He “took it to the limit” and was a touring pro on the WQS and WCT circuits for many years before returning home to Coffs, where he runs his Surf School and raises a family.
The NSW lifesaving patrol season ended on Sunday 28 April, however Park Beach, Coffs Harbour is still patrolled by council lifeguards 7 days a week.
Please do not take any risks during the off-season period. No Flags = No Swim! The majority of beach patrols will again commence on the first day of the September School Holidays.
