Category: Mid Coast

There’s no wind on the Mid Coast early and conditions are clean and glassy, also pretty much dead flat. It’s just coming off a fairly big morning tide so it’s also still very full, but the water draining out of the gulf is not gonna help it in any way. The beachies might manage some little peelers for the kids through low tide between midday and 1pm, but don’t expect a whole lot to happen on the reefs once the tide starts coming in again after lunch. Light winds should keep it clean all day, and the weather looks great at least.

Winds are out of the ESE at around 15 knots on the Mid Coast this morning, and conditions are clean. It’s also pretty much dead flat with barely shin-high waves rolling over the reefs on the outgoing tide. Low tide is at 11:30 and it’s really low,  and all that water leaving the gulf won’t help anything. It will at least offer the chance for a bit of exploration of the exposed reefs for lost fins and GoPro’s.   Winds will tend more SE-S after lunch and probably get back up to around 20 knots, adding bumps along exposed stretches. Surf will remain very small all day. Shred factor: 1

The usual summer ESE winds are blowing off the land on the Mid Coast early, and conditions are clean. There are small lines of swell coming off high tide at 5am, but it’s still very borderline at around half a foot on the reefs. The dropping tide will kill it some more, but the lower tide will offer some learner / mally waves on the beachies through the lunch hour. Southerly winds will kick in early arvo and add bumps on the reefs , but evening sou-easters may open up the chance of a late longboard wave around knee-high.

SE winds are gusting around 25 knots on the Mid Coast this morning and conditions are clean, but slightly blown out anywhere exposed. Surf has come up slightly with occasional 1′ sets on the reefs, but there’s fairly long gaps of nothing in between. The dropping tide won’t help with low just before 11am, but there’s a chance of a small pulse on the incoming tide just after lunch. Fresh southerlies will kick in again after lunch and add bumps, so if there’s any waves on the reefs they’ll probably be trashed anyway.

Conditions are clean on the Mid Coast early with SE winds around 15 knots, and some very small lines of swell . Surf is around half a foot on the reefs, and the tide is heading out until just after 10am. The slow incoming tide may provide a small lift around midday, but most likely surf won’t get much bigger today. Winds will have more South in then from early arvo onward, and add a few bumps along exposed stretches, before shifting back to a fresh SE land breeze in the evening.

We’re back to ESE winds around 15 knots on the Mid Coast this morning, and conditions are clean with a few lines of swell still getting up the gulf. Surf is around 1′ on the reefs with occasional bigger sets, and the tide coming in until 0815. The dropping tide will kill it a bit mid morning, but we’ll also probably see winds shift more Southerly and pick up. There should still be some waves on the

incoming tide after lunch, and the beachies will have waves through low tide – but fresh S-SSW winds look like adding bumps for the arvo. Happy New Year!
