Crazy 24 hours down the beaches. Na not the surf – pretty lame in that department. Last night 50 feet off the Icebergs pool, a lone 8 foot Bronze Whaler Shark sniffed around – scaring the crackers out of young 15 year old surfer Blake – giving him a little nudge off his board.

"Lot of salmon around at the moment…bringing a couple of sharkies into the bay" says Harry the lifeguard who has been around forever.

Chuck the Bergs pool cleaner, a mad game fisherman qualified the sighting – last night watching the stealth bomber lurk in the southern end of Bondi.

If you live in Tama, last night you might have been keep up with the Police chopper doing circle work and high beamin’ the waters near the twins in search of a body. Approximately 11:20pm last night a guy went for swim and didn’t return to the shores. Police and Lifeguards are still on the job this morning diving for the body. At 9am nothing found yet…

Surf conditions were clean this morning, but the swell has swung more east and is missing Bondi. Exposed beaches (e.g. Whaley) would show head high sets whilst Bond*age is around knee high and weak. Hot beach day – thumpin’ 31 degrees with cloud cover coming this afternoon and northerly winds. Weak south change overnight. High tide 09:56, low tide 16:09
