Today

S swell on the drop. WSW/SW winds make for decent enough conditions for the keen.

Afternoon update: S swell on the drop, but for the keen there are still some waves to be had. WSW winds are trending with semi-clean conditions seen around the region, with size in the chest to overhead region depending on location and exposure. While not pumping, it is worth a paddle for those who like a bit of a solid grovel.
