It was a gloomy old start to the day—dark, chilly, and a little wonky. Bondi was serving up head-high+, unruly waves under a thick grey blanket. Not many punters out either… maybe the 9.1° temps at 5am scared ’em off?
Winds are now out of the S, blowing 10–15 knots. Tomorrow looks much more playful, as the swell tidies up and those offshore winds hold.
But wait for it… mid next week, we’ve got a monster swell heading our way. Triple head-high and then some. Way too big for Bondi, but the reefs might light up if you’re brave – Chase is already waxing up.
School hols are here. That means these posts may get a bit… erratic. We’re not euro-summering with the masses—we’re heading off-grid to poke around Sri Lanka and the Maldives. Brown coconuts…
