Good pulses of swell with favourable winds during the mornings but mainly out of the south-eastern quadrant.
We've got a favourable upgrade in swell for the coming period, a good start to summer in the gulf.
A tight low firing up under Western Australia today will produce a better pulse of westerly swell over the coming days and while winds are far from perfect there should be a few workable options.
Nothing major in size but persistent small swells out of the west with workable winds.
