Anyone know how it works with surfing?

Thinking it counts as exercise , no more than 5km from home and one other person for 1 hour maximum?
I could see plates been checked and fines issued at busy spots

My understanding (and what has applied in other states) is that it doesn't count when you are exercising - that is, you don't need to wear a mask if jogging, swimming or surfing

I think you'll find it's "masks at all times when outside" - obviously this cannot apply for swimming and surfing etc... but I am about to go for a bike ride and my Mrs who is a nurse has just handed me a face mask

$10000 and you trade in your board for two boogie boards, At a guess.

My moneys is on it being extended till at least Sunday night or another week.
It would seem crazy if they lifted it at 6pm on a Friday just in time for everyone to go out to pubs etc.

I just make it to the ocean in 5kms as the crow flies.

I can think of a few Breezers who don't. Sad.

Looking at the point and Scarborough camera last few days I think i can hazard a guess a lot of those humans do not live within 5km

I cant even get to my block in Lanno...............Filthy on it

Seen a few people 10 X over the travel limit the last few days but it really hasn't been worth it. Really annoying swell. Just big enough for very patient longbaoards but enough water movement to limit snorkling visibility to under 2m in sheltered areas.

Same this morning too small to surf, but enough swell to screw up visibility at my goto spots. Really wanted fish for lunch today too...But then the swell jumped just as I was about to crack my first beer. Word got out pretty quick though

Just been reading about Lennox council knocking back WCT access for a CT event, and looks like Bells might be off as well, then I noticed some links to the 2021 Margaret river event and it says it is still 'tentatively' on...

Cant find much info at all about this but surely it's got to be called off....
