  Yesterday I met a man who ruled the world in his sleep. A light southerly, a golden half hour before the crowds. 2 foot at the north end. Chop. CTB looks pretty tame today.         Pennies rising with the sun. The biggest bunch of 6am I’ve seen. Nestled into the pack...

And who are these girls? They are our own swimming mini-mermaids, a band of 12-13 year old young women who love turtles and the sea. They want to be sure both will still be around for many years. They are ardent supporters of Australian Seabird and Turtle Rescue (ASTR). To that end, they are holding...

Manly Surf Life Saving Patrol 1 members and B& B swimmers, Jocelyn and Leah, were looking super energised as they finished their 6am paddle board skills training session today!

An absolute stunner of a swim this morning! Our favourite corner was flat and calm, sun was out and water temp was up to 19.5! But more than that… it was clear and we were greeted by loads of Luderick, Blackfish, Stingarees and Gropers as we swam towards the point! I was lucky enough to...
