Greetings.
The Bad News - Kinda ugly morning with thick overcast skies and nuisance onshore winds destroying the quality small waves of yesterday. Boondye had a few waist to shoulder high waves rockin’ in, mostly messy but still surfable for the frothas. No light this morning - hence the slow shutter flys and black + whites. High tide is at 11:26, 18:03 low tide, water is still warm 23 with a much cooler day of 24 degrees on the land.
The Good News - These onshore winds are whipping up some swell. Thursday (may be still onshore with east winds)/Friday (North winds - yay) and Saturday (North winds yay) look like there is some fun to be had.
There are some great exhibitions around town at the moment:
