Spinkys’s Best Bet To Get Ya Froth On :

The E/SE swell is still hanging around with 3 feet of solid swell and larger set waves on the northern open stretches. Unfortunately the light SW winds the last couple of mornings have swung around the the E/SE making the open beach breaks unfavourable with the onshore winds. An early high tide at 5.33 am on its way out with low at 12.05pm. Stick to the corners of The Bluff and Corner at Alex, Pt.Cartwright, Moffats, The Point of Noosa, along the southern stretch of Maroochydore towards the skatepark at Alex early before the wind picks up and tide drops out. The patrolled open beaches unstable with the large surf, alot of water moving around still. Mooloolaba and Noosa’s patrolled beaches the most favourable. The water temp at 25c.Enjoy your day in the waves.Ýo
