Mid Coast

** AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE ABOUT THE FUTURE OF SURFSOUTHOZ, PLEASE READ! **

Conditions are clean on the Mid Coast early with light East winds, but as you’d expect… it’s flat again. High tide at 0715 is a biggie, not that it matters with zero swell hitting the full-tide reefs. The outgoing tide after 0830 won’t change anything, but again the low tide early arvo will expose a lot of reef. The usual sea-breezey southerly should have kicked in by then, and the arvo will only offer small chop. High tide is 7:44pm, and by then the wind should be back to the SE. It’ll still be flat. Check the latest surf forecast to see if the Xmas lead-up looks any better.

Mid Coast

Conditions are glassy on the Mid Coast early with no wind, but also no waves. There is a slight wobble on the sea surface from SSE winds yestrday and the tide is pretty full, but there’s just no swell getting into the gulf at all. The outgoing tide after 0730 won’t change anything, although low tide at lunch will expose a lot of reef which is always fun for a bit of a treasure hunt. By lunchtime the wind will probably be from the South, and the now-standard choppy afternoon will follow with 15 knot SSE winds. Surf will remain a non-event today, but it’ll be nice for a swim or a snorkel somewhere. Check the latest surf forecast to see how tomorrow is looking.

South winds at 7 knots are giving gulf waters a brushed look, but that isn’t hiding any swell – there’s none. There are tiny lines at a few spots but nowhere is really breaking at all this morning, and the high tide isn’t helping. The dropping tide will come with fresh South winds, and even though low tide at lunch the beach breaks will still be tiny. There’s no sign of any miracles on the incoming tide after lunch either – fresh South winds will keep it bumpy and lack of swell will keep it flat. Surf forecast will be updated tonight. Honestly.

Mid Coast

There’s no wind and conditions are clean on the Mid Coast early, but swell is small. It’s dropped overnight, and surf is back to an inconsistent 1′ on a few of the reefs, coming up to a full tide at 0630. The outgoing tide will be the beginning of the end around 8am, and as the Southerly wind kicks in that will finish it off. The breeze is looking SSW through the middle part of the day, possibly around 20 knots. Surf will be bumpy on the incoming tide after lunch, and wave heights won’t top 1′. AN evening SE wind might clean it up again in the evening. Surf forecast will be updated tonight.

Mid Coast

Conditions are clean on the Mid Coast early with 10 – 15 knot SE winds and a minor lift in the swell. There are 1′ waves on a few of the reefs, and the tide peaks around 6am. The outgoing tide will kill the small swell after 0730, but lower water will open up a few other options. Low tide at 1pm will favour Trigs and the beach breaks. but by then the wind will be more from the South and probably 15 – 20 knots. Anywhere exposed will be bumpy, but the Southern end of South Port will offer some shelter. The swell might build a bit on the incoming tide after lunch, and the wind should start to swing SE again after 6pm.

The wind is unexpectedly light from the ESE on the Mid Coast early, and conditions are clean… but still flat. There actually were a few 1′ waves late yesterday, but there’s no sign of anything like it this morning with only the tiniest lines visible. The tide is heading out, and it’ll get very low after 10am. Fresh southerlies are forecast, possibly up to 25 knots by early arvo. Anywhere exposed will be wind affected, and anywhere sheltered won’t be breaking. Some new swell should start to sneak in late arvo, so there;’s a chance of a small wave and shelter at the Southern end of South Port. Check the latest surf forecast to see how the rest of the week is shaping up.

Light North winds are adding a slightly brushed look on the Mid Coast this morning, but it’s clean and glassy early. The flatness continues, and there is absolutely zero swell getting into the gulf. Check the latest surf forecast to see how the new week is shaping up. The tide is draining out to a very low 0.27m at 11am, which will exose a lot of reef after 10am. Northerly winds are predicted to pick up after sunrise, possibly blowing 15 – 20 knots for a while. The breeze will drop out again after lunch, ahead of a Southerly change this evening. Surf will remain flat all day. Check the latest surf forecast to see how the new week is shaping up.
