Wednesday seeing a slow fade in ENE swell - a few fun waves about. NW offshores for the AM.
We’ve got clean which offshore winds continue to favour exposed beaches where fading ENE swell produces waist-high waves. Protected points are slow and inconsistent, making beachies the better option despite the easing trend. Size on the exposures in the chest high see for the dawnie, with these better sized sets becoming less and less frequent through the morning. A small but enjoyable day for those keeping expectations realistic.
