Saturday 20/12/2025

Swell: 2-3ft (0.60-0.90m) knee to waist height.

Wind: SW tending SSW

High Tide: 12:28pm - 1.26m

Low Tide: 6:50pm - 0.36m

A change in wind, weather and swell quality has created a big contrast from yesterday. A very messy wind-swell is on offer today that will provide a few options for the keen but has created a lay-day for others.

Smiths has a few playful peaks courtesy of the broken-up swell. The waves are very close together so you will need to be on your toes and do a bit of hunting. The groms are having an absolute ball out there.

The open beaches will a complete mess and will not be coping with the swell quality. More size would be the only real advantage today.

The Cat Bay area will be the most protected option but will be very small.

Have a lovely weekend! :)
