Any suggestions for a wavesail location tomorrow? A search suggests Woolamai might be the go, but I've never sailed there before. Not too keen on sailing an unknown location without someone else around.

Hi! Last Sunday I went to Woolamai to do some wavesailing (it was my first time there and I was the only windsurfer, but there were surfers). While the direction stayed SW it was veeery good. Later on, it turned easterly and became a bit more tricky because of the combination of a sizeable swell and off-shore (light and gusty) wind. I reckon tomorrow the direction looks good all the day. I'll be there early in the morning. I send you my mobile! Victor

It should be good but you will need to go early. As the tide gets too low the waves will get a lot worse.

Hmm. Would be good if there was a bit of wind here. Skunked!

So, who's got out on PP Bay since 4pm today? Wish I'd gazed into my crystal ball and got organised! Fawkner Beacon readings look like a beautiful 20-25 knot breeze.

Hope some of y'all are out there!

Balnarring Beach was perfect for wind direction ESE this PM, alas no waves.

I had a late session at Torquay.
I had been checking this all day and noticed it come up a little more near the end of the day.

Had a good little session till dark.

Was a bit strange jumping and back side riding on the opposite tack.
