At 6.55 a.m:   Constantine (1*):  2 feet   A thick layer of murk and mizzle is blocking the view down in the bay this morning, yesterday’s lights, camera and action crew of the Doc Martin series now gone, leaving an empty and fairly bleak looking beach in their wake. The surf is small and […]

At 6.40 a.m:   Constantine (0*):  1 to 2 feet    Another damp and drizzly, grey and breezy morning is covering the bay in dampness, the tiny surf being pushed and tugged by a fresh west north westerly breeze. We should see a few brighter stretches as we go through the day but right now […]

At 9.20 a.m:   Constantine (0*):  0 to 1 foot   A mixed old day is threatening some rain while that cold northerly north easterly wind is blustering down the coast, blowing across the lines of titchy, tiny, teeny, weeny waves. It is rideable on a big, big board but only just about. It’s another […]

At 6.35 a.m:  Constantine (0*):  0 to 1 foot     Sheet rain is hosing down the beach this morning while a wild northerly wind is keeping temperatures down to uncomfortable levels. The surf is tiny and barely rideable but might just get a little bigger with the midday tide. But even then it’s likely […]

At 6.55 a.m:   Constantine (2*):  2 to 3 feet A pleasantly bright and cheery morning is disappointing us a little with its lack of quality surf. The sky is bright, the breeze is light but the swell is localised and weak looking, a couple of feet, maybe just a little bit bigger every now […]

At 6.40 a.m:   Constantine (0*):  4 to 5 feet   It’s a wild ‘n woolly one out there this morning but at least it’s a whole lot drier and brighter than yesterday! And of course that howling westerly wind is making the surf a mix of mad and out of control windswell but it’s […]

At 6.40 a.m:   Constantine (2*):  1 to 2 feet The wind is slowly strengthening this morning, drifting from the north east right now, forecast to be more northerly by midmorning. So the heavy downpour that is powering down is falling almost vertically but starting to gain an angle, that thick rain having a feel […]

At 6.35 a.m:   Constantine (2*):  3 feet   A fabulous day is spreading brightness along the coast this morning, a light, light south westerly breeze just ruffling the marram beneath a deep blue endless sky. And a couple to three feet of lazy looking surf is gliding into the bay, all a little crumbly […]

At 6.35 a.m:   Constantine (1*):  3 to 4 feet     A drier, lighter and breezier day is cheering up the coastline this morning with a gusting westerly wind hurrying bundles of clouds out of the way along the horizon. That same wind though is making a right mess of the three feet or […]

At 6.40 a.m:   Constantine (3*):  3 feet Sheet rain is falling vertically on this almost windless morning with sky, sea and land merging into one wall of grey and murky wetness. And somehow it is still cosy and comforting, a snuggly place to be for a moment or two. The surf is okay too, […]
