Best Days: Good waves each morning for beginners Tuesday, Wednesday, Thusday and Saturday

Recap

A slow start to Saturday ahead of a fun new W/SW swell into the afternoon, tiny back into Sunday and this morning.

This weekend and next week (Jun 5 - 10)

The coming forecast period still looks small to tiny, with no major swell generating systems expected to push through our swell windows favourably.

A distant and inconsistent W/SW groundswell for tomorrow looks too west to offer anything over 1ft+ into the afternoon, fading Wednesday.

Our flukey swell for later Wednesday and Thursday morning looks a no go now, with a tight low that's currently south-southwest of WA aiming a fetch of severe-gale to storm-force NW winds poorly in our swell window.

Again nothing over 1ft if that is due.

Winds over the coming days look favourable each morning, creating good conditions for beginners.

A weakening mid-latitude front passing across us Friday evening will generate a poor fetch of W/NW winds, with no decent size expected off this.

Longer term the outlook is a touch better, though still not ideal. More on this Wednesday.
