Plenty of swell energy around, well…predominantly breaking in the 3 foot range, but quality wasn’t there. Bondi’s small time sand banks couldn’t handle anything above 2 foot – closing out straight. But nice conditions with sunshine, light offshore westerly and relatively warm water – or it may just be my new steamer. Similar tomorrow. Solid on the weekend.

Samudra do Yoga & Surf retreats all around the world. We sent well known journo Anneli Knight, (the world’s most enthusiastic woman) to a week of heathy livin’ up at their recent Byron Bay Yoga + surf retreat to see what’s it all about. Read Article
