The swell remains large on the South Coast and it’s cleaned up overnight, with light NE winds early. The stretch from Middleton – Goolwa is maxing and the Bay is about the only option this morning, with sets in the 6′ range. It’s absolutely thumping in between Victor and Port Elliot, Chiton and the Gap have 6′ sets but now and then it’s bigger. The reef magnets further up are also working, so pack your gun and prepare to cop a pounding from 6 – 8’+ sets. Only paddle out it you are 100% confident. There will be sheltered spots also on the pump this morning, possibly even some novelty spots worth checking. The swell will remain very big all day, but quality will most likely deteriorate after lunch also onshore winds kick in. Enjoy a rare summer swell… it’s one of the best we’ve seen in December for many years.
