Blowing a gale and has been for days. There was a 72 kmh gust around 7.00 am and it isn't backing off.
The beach is a massive washing machine. Shouldn't really call it the beach because the water is lapping on the dunes, old swimming baths, rocks, sea wall and anything else that is usually dry. There are huge waves bashing in everywhere.
It looks like the Wall is the only place surfable. There are a truck load of cars at the gate but with spray coming over the seawall I wasn't walking down to find out. Looking from a couple of other vantage points I would say there are waves but they won't be very good.

Backwash fun
Everyone likes watching people get smashed at Backwash. This short video is from a couple of weeks ago. Unfortunately I missed the wave where one guy decided to catch one in and ended up on the rocks before getting washed back out. All his mate thought it was hilarious, except the one that owned the board !!!!
