It’s a brighter one this morning, breezy and chilly but lighter and cheerier!
There’s a gusting north nor’ easter blowing some cold air our way while just managing to stay on the offshore side of sideshore.
The swell has dropped a lot but there are still some meaty sets marching in, easily in the five to six feet plus range.
So those big right-handers seem to be the ones, those ones sheltered by the headland, those slab-perfect and tubing ones.
the tide is going to be too high in a minute but give it a few hours and we could be having some fun!

So, we have been having some great fun this last couple of weeks with our weekend POP-UP SALES and we don’t want it to finish! But equally we cannot afford to keep giving suits out at the prices that we have been.
So imagine our delight when we unpacked another couple of boxes of winter wetsuits and decided that nobody is going to really want to buy them now until next year – unless we offer them out at fantastic discount prices!
So, with the winter half-term school holidays upon us, we have decide to have a SCHOOLS OUT – CLEAR OUT!!
And it’s O’Neill and Xcel’s turn to be offered at HALF – PRICE! We have Xcel Infiniti X2s at HALF-PRICE as well as a range of O’Neill winter wetsuits at HALF-PRICE!!
From Saturday 13th FEB to Sunday 21st FEB, 10.30 to 4pm daily. And all our other WINTER WETSUITS (Patagonia, Vissla, Xcel and O’Neill) will also be on SALE at a mighty 30% OFF with loads of other offers throughout the shop (30% OFF Patagonia clothing plus 20% OFF most other stuff!).
Once again this offer is only open to callers to the shop!
The whole point is to get everyone back into that surfy rapping kind of buzz feeling that the internet sometimes doesn’t quite get!! And with the surf looking promisingly pleasant this weekend, it could just be worth your while dropping in on us agin for another SUPER WETSUIT BARGAIN!

This north nor’ easterly wind is quite fresh and it’s blowing onshore here. And so the three to four feet of mixed up surf is pretty choppy and broken up.
It has that deep blue look of a cold winter surf to it as well this morning!
So, it’s not the place to be surfing today. There will be other places breaking really well on the other side of the headland, while the far coast could still be showing some style!

Surf Forecast for Tuesday 16th February 2016

A four or five foot swell with a south sou’ westerly wind is being forecast and that will likely result in a fun day at Harlyn!
It should be a couple to three feet and offshore pretty much all day long!

Surf Conditions for the Start of the Week

Those smooth conditions of the weekend, that solid rolling swell and those offshore winds should see us into the start of the week, the swell only gradually dropping in size but still staying strong, now more in the three to four feet range.
But, as always, that wind is inevitably going to slide onshore as the week goes on.
we are likely to be surfing Harlyn again by Tuesday on a south westerly windblown four foot swell, the wind going north westerly by midweek, driving us over to the far coast in search of cleaner conditions.
And that’s probably going to be the way of it for the rest of this school half-term week!
Have a great week, wherever you are and whatever you’re doing!
