Weekend Surf Report For Beginner & Intermediate Surfers 8th & 9th March

Writer's picture: Dylan WallisDylan Wallis

Winds out of the south this weekend will mean there's good windows for all levels if you come at the right time. Saturday is my pick with a bit more swell and wind on Sunday.

Saturday 8th March


Swell - 1m - 1.4m 3 - 4ft

Wind - 8 - 12knts South turning South West

High Tide - 5.01am & 5.35pm

Low Tide - 11.22am


There's small tides this weekend which is always good for beginners as it makes gentle waves for learning. Expect clean waves with a sea breeze in the afternoon which is more important for intermediates.


Beginners - There's been great waves for learning on the mid tide recently so I'd look to get in the water anytime from dawn until 10am or 1pm onwards. My pick for the best beginner waves is 2pm - 4pm and I'd expect it to be very good!

Look Out!! It might be a tiny bit tricky on the low tide, with a bit more current.

Advanced Beginners - There will be an opportunity early with the early high tide or you could wait for the arvo. 3pm - 5pm is my pick if you're trying to find some little unbroken waves.

Look Out!! If you're paddling out, the current has been strong heading north.


Intermediates - Go early before there's too much wind. With the swell size there will be chances at any tide.

Look Out!! Out the back the current is heading north.


Sunday 9th March


Swell  - 1.4m - 2m 4 - 6ft

Wind  - 18 - 22knts South

High Tide - 6.24am & 6.59pm

Low Tide - 12.43pm


A bit more swell and wind on Sunday makes it not a good as Saturday but there will still be some fun beginner waves in the wind.


Beginners - Similar to Saturday theres good waves for learning on the mid tide, so I'd look to get in the water anytime from dawn until 11am or 2pm onwards. My pick for the best beginner waves is 3pm - 5pm.

Look Out!! When it's windy it's extra important to cover your head when you fall off.

 

Advanced Beginners - There will be an opportunity early with the early high tide or you could wait for the arvo. 4pm - 6pm will be good if you're trying to find some little unbroken waves.

Look Out!! If you're paddling out, the current has been strong heading north.


Intermediates - There's a good bank, but it might be too windy. Check the cam on GoodSurfNow to see if the winds lighter than forecast.

Look Out!! Out the back the current is heading north.
