Big surf coming!

March 17, 2010 · Leave a Comment

The cyclone off Fiji is going to lead to some huge Sunshine Coast surf this week

If you are a surfer, it could be a great time to head down to the beach.  Remember though, that these are NOT conditions for beginners!  Please only go into the water if you are a strong swimmer and experienced surfer.

A big swell can be great to just go and have a look at though, so for the rest of us it’ll be a good chance to take a walk on the beach and check it out!
