Central Coast NSW Forecast
Kurt Korte •Today
Mid period southerly swell with conditions best through the early part of the day.
Fun start to the weekend with southerly swell and a morning of offshore, clean conditions. Best south exposures are well overhead in the AM with westerly winds setting up challenging conditions for the biggest spots. Breaks less exposed get better shape and manageable conditions.
Our surf trends down for the PM but still well overhead at the best exposures. Winds trend less ideal but are fairly light.
