Sydney is flat, so I decided to visit the (typically) flat water beach of Coogee.
Coogee is an Aboriginal word, but Google is telling me it has a few different meanings. 1 study on the name ‘Coogee’ refers to it as the “Smelly place” due to the rotting seaweed on the beach. Another search reveals it could me “Body of water”.
No weed on the beach today, just loads of early risers enjoying this supreme spring morning. What a cracker!
Today’s water temp is 19.2°C – not too bad really. Abundant sunshine and pleasant day ahead with a maximum of 22°C. Westerly winds of 16 knots – that’s the perfect wind for our beaches – it makes the water a crazy blue colour.
If you’re hunting waves – Sunday, is looking good.

Great shot of Payno ”surfing”.
Loving the reference to Aboriginal language. Please capitalise Aboriginal!
