Groundswell of TC Victor will gradually fade, with one final undersized pulse due on Thursday across open beaches. A northeasterly windswell is due to build strongly late in the week, with indications of favourable winds on Thursday afternoon.
Primary tabs
Inconsistent E/NE groundswell building to the 2-3ft+ across the open beaches in the ocming days, cleanest at protected southern ends. An E'ly windswell looks to build next week, overshadowing the groundswell, but with poor quality.
Small swell in the coming days, building from Friday with the impacts of Severe Tropical Cyclone Victor filling in. Open beaches are looking good for a run of days starting Friday.
We are looking at small, clean conditions each morning, however late week/weekend holds much better prospects for solid E/NE groundswell from TC Victor.
Small easing S'ly pulses over the weekend with NE windswell for next week.
Plenty of swell to end the week with winds favouring south facing beaches. We have a dormant weekend ahead, with better prospects on Monday and into next week.
Small tomorrow with a good inconsistent S/SE groundswell building Wednesday along with a building N/NE windswell. Both swells easing Thursday with morning offshores.

Best Days: Saturday morning, possibly later next week.
Recap:
Conditions early on Thursday were nice and clean under calm winds as a 2ft east/northeasterly swell rolled in. Today, we’ve seen more size, with a southerly swell building across the magnets. The better part of the morning was pumping with plenty of size and good shape under a northwesterly airflow.
This weekend (Saturday 9th - Sunday 10th):
Multiple sources of east/northeasterly swells in the water to end the week, with light winds each morning. Over the weekend, small southerly groundswells look to break across the magnets.
The run of E'ly swell continues, with Thursday looking like the pick of the bunch. The peak of the swell is looking to coincide with light winds, with clean options in the 3ft range.
