Big swell in LB, 25Dec11

I know it’s not a Trip Report but I thought pics of today's sea conditions may be of interest. My son, Nick and I went for a walk over to the northern side of the headland. Forecast swells were 6.0m from the east.

Jew Shoal, as seen from Dolphin Point. How'd you like to be fishing out there today knowing that you had to come back in to Middle Groyne? Just getting out to Jew Shoal would have been a remarkable feat. Minimum depth at Jew Shoal is around 7m.

The more adventurous and wealthy board riders were using jetskis to get out to the break off Dolphin Point. This guy was jumping off the back of the jetski when the wave got steep enough.
