Updated: 2018-10-20 08:18:00 Surf: clean 3-5ft E Winds: Light N Weather: fine Rating: 6/10

Fun waves today, it’s one of the better days I’ve seen in a while. Light north winds with a clean East swell, what’s not to like ? Get out there before the sea breeze kicks in later.

2018-10-20 05:43:00: peaky 3-5ft E, Light N, partly cloudy 6/10

Dawn Report: Great waves this morning, with light winds and a tidy E'ly swell pushing 3-5ft across most breaks, and light N'ly winds not causing too many problems... yet. There are stacks of waves on offer but you're going to have to surf early before the wind ruins everything. Tune in to the updated photo report around 8am.
