Spinkys’s Best Bet To Get Ya Froth On :

Solid swell in the 6foot+range however very wind affected along the open beach breaks with the onshore conditions. Once again all roads leading to Noosa with the cleaner conditions at Ti-Tree, Nationals through to First Point. It will be crowded, so be patient.. The Bluff at Alexandra Headland and Mooloolaba on the high tide are pretty much your only other options, as the onshore winds are strong from the Sth East at 25knots and are expected to strengthen throughout the afternoon. High tide at 8.19 am and low at 2.41 pm. The patrolled beaches of Mooloolaba and Noosa your safest option fro a dip in the briny, be cautious as the surf is large and powerful, swim between the red and yellow flags. The water temp at 25c. Enjoy your day in the waves. Ýo
