Best Days: Early Saturday morning south swell magnets

Recap

Large but windy waves yesterday, best in protected spots, cleaner and easing through today from the 4ft+ range.

This weekend and next week (Aug 24 - 30)

Our recent S'ly swell will drop right back tomorrow with just a small leftover 1-2ft wave with fresh offshore winds.

The rest of the outlook is void of any significant swell until later next week when we may see a stronger polar frontal system pushing up from below us, and also the formation of a Tasman Low to our north-east.

The models are converging on this low, but whether it will have any strength is to be seen, so check back here Monday for the latest. Have a great weekend!
