Arvo update - Tides rushing in so beachies filling up rapidly. Still offshore, still ok. Points too full now. Earlier report - Plenty of 3-5ft south groundswell lines this morning on the beaches. The wind is mod to fresh WSW.Nice wave on The Point,but it is a bit inconsistent. The beaches are a bit straight on some sets, but generally plenty of corners and runners, even the odd hollow one. Well worth a paddle today. Up to 5ft at Wanda and a bit straight. Midway, Elouera and Nth Cron the pick.
The NSW lifesaving patrol season ended on Sunday 28 April, however North Cronulla and Cronulla are 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.

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!
