Arvo update - There are some surfable 2ft NE peaks right now.Earlier report - Hot, small and crowded - that is the scenario today. There are some tiny, weak 1ft peaks out of the ENE. Winds will be hot offshore NW, so water surface conditions will be clean all day - if only it was a foot or two bigger. Keep an eye on it there may be some two foot sets later today. The water temp is 20 degrees and its small and safe for a dip.Check the Coastalwatch swell forecast.

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!
