At 5.45 a.m:   Constantine (1*):  4 to 5 feet  A hard blowing sou’ wester is shaking the dunes this morning while flinging four feet and bigger of roaring wild surf our way. As squalls of soaking rain drench the headland, that grey and murky sea is rocking in the wind, bumpy and raggedy swells […]

At 6.15 a.m:  Constantine (1*):  2 to 3 feet A lively south westerly wind is fussing its way into the bay this morning, sweeping the sky clear of cloud while keeping temperatures down. And so the surf is a jumbled mess of waves again with only a couple to three feet of broken up and […]

At 6.20 a.m:   Constantine (1*):  2 to 3 feet A chilly west nor’ westerly wind is wheezing onshore this morning, the silver blue sky maybe gradually giving way to something brighter as we go along but with a little dampness to keep the crops happy first. And so the surf is a bit of […]

At 6.15 a.m:   Constantine (0*):  1 to 2 feet It’s a bit of a dreary one out there this morning, a blustering sou’ wester fussing its way into the bay, ruffling and slopping the foot or two of weak surf. The sky is trying to brighten, promising better for later maybe but the surf […]

At 6.15 a.m:   Constantine (0*):  2 feet The comforting and steady pitter patter of heavy rainfall is all the more cosy for the lack of wind this morning, so far. The sky is crushing the ocean with torrential rain, a blur of dampness joining land, sea and air. And what slight breeze there is […]

At 6.15 a.m:   Constantine (1*):  4 to 5 feet  The wind is howling at the thick bundles of cloud as they go scudding across the ocean this morning, the bay being sandblasted by that heavy onshore westerly. A three to four feet mess of choppy and sloppy surf is being bundled onto the sand, […]

At 6.15 a.m:   Constantine (1*):  2 feet  The view from the window is poorer than the reality this morning. Grey clouds are clinging to the coastline and the hedgerows are rattling and rippling in the wind as short bursts of light rain splash the dunes but there are gaps of blue and the air […]

At 6.15 a.m:   Constantine (4*):  4 to 6 feet  These cloudless skies and windless warm mornings are continuing to delight, that same chunky swell throwing four to five feet plus of thick and juicy waves onto the beach. The tides are playing a big part in getting the best out of the surf this […]

At 6.15 a.m:   Constantine (4*):  4 to 6 feet  Thick and booming, steely blue waves are unfolding onto the high tide banks down in the bay this morning, the crystal clear skies and calm, still air filled with the explosive sound of breaking waves and the dawn chorus of breakfasting seabirds. Four to six […]

At 6.35 a.m:   Constantine (3*):  4 to 5 feet The warmth of a bright summer’s morning is already starting to be felt on the cold sand as a deep blue gradually takes over the sky again this morning. The breeze is fussing from the south, just starting to twitch to the south east, almost […]
