Monday 8th September 2025 – Sunrise & Waves.

I rode down the Corso to catch the predawn light & the dare I say it ‘the shark boat’. Millie jogged up the beach ahead of  Simon & Simon. While I rode my bike to see the mermaids and the sunrise. Snoopy & co. Drinky led the Drinks Expressers across the bay in close formation...

Friday 5 September 2025 Leave only ripples

  When we swim, we enjoy the water and the sea life in this aquatic reserve. After we get out of the water, there are only ripples left behind. Just as it should be. And a bit less rubbish. Here is a shot of the Spring entry dance. A bride is here this morning with...

It’s a dog’s life!

Earlier in  the morning it seemed we almost had Lake Manly back. Small waves but definitely some water movementn not really discernible in this photo. The sun filtering through the soft high clouds giving a soft and subtle vibe. Hopefully the small waves are bringing the sand back. Only a few days ago several foundations...

Cuttlefish and PJ’s galore 03/09

Spring, the gift that keeps on giving Another beautiful day in our bay, swimmers reported seeing 5 giant cuttlefish no less and so many PJ’s they lost count. I apologise for this first clumsy blog attempt on our new site and for duplications but I’m on my L’s so bear with me. Hambe Kahle (...

Swimming into Spring

Spring has arrived, and with it comes that subtle shift you can feel not just in the air, but in the ocean too. This morning the sea was 18.1 degrees, flat as glass, with visibility so clear it felt like swimming through liquid light. A large school of fish shimmered around us, moving as one...

First Day of Spring

Sydney’s newest beach

Breaking news – Fairy Bower beach is back. A century of stolen sand has been returned to the beach at half way. Manly Surf Club is hustling for more lifesavers to protect Sydney’s newest beach. The local Speed Dealers group has already set up a volleyball court for a big Brits abroad volleyball competition this...

Have we ever seen the beach like this? Setting up the patrol tent is going to be interesting. Still, this is just an extreme of the regular movement. Like sand through an hourglass….. All the posts are now visible. Getting off the ramp and onto the sand is tricky, especially approaching high tide. The word...

Appearances can be deceiving. The surf today was very strong, with several people opting to dip, me included. Even this had its challenges. I went in at the Wentworth Street steps and was swept to the ramp in less than a minute. The current then turned parallel to the walkway and rushed out to the...

Bye bye winter 🥶

It looks like winter still but it doesn’t feel like it. There’s rain on the horizon and a dark sky, but the air is warm – I wore thongs- and the water is 19.1 , summer temps. Lots of seaweed on the beach and on the shallows, but once through that it was perfectly calm...
