Late Morning Update...A perfect winter's day with the swell is only small, but clean from the ESE in the 1 up to 2ft range on the more open beaches, almost flat in the S corners and a touch bigger on the far N end of the coast. The winds are light SW and are forecast to stay that way. The tide is coming in to a high just before 4pm. Small ones along the open E facing beachies on the incoming tide with a bit more size from Coolum to A Bay.
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.
All major Sunshine Coast beaches are patrolled by lifeguards from 7.30am untill 4.30 pm. Take care and follow any warning signs and follow any directions given by Lifeguards. Remember for your safety always swim only between the RED &YELLOW flags. Ensure you swim when Lifeguards and Lifesavers are on duty and don't swim after hours.
NO FLAGS = NO SWIM.
