The outlook is very active with plenty of opportunities for a surf.

Spectacular charts more characteristic of late Summer/Autumn with a Cat 5 TC in the South Pacific bearing down on Vanuatu, and a powerful frontal intrusion poised to enter the Tasman Sea backed by a monster high in the Bight. A strong S-SE surge associated with this system spawns a surface low off the North Coast when it encounters a trough line in that zone.

We've got lots of swell for the South Coast over the coming days as winds slowly improve, windy and larger next week.

The coming period remains tricky with onshore winds at the peak of the swells, smallest and fading when clean.
