Gday everyone, I was just going to see how golden beach might be tomorrow arvo with the tide showing 0.0? The forecast looks good but maybe not till the arvo. I've only windsurfed it in a north east. Does it also go pretty well on a south east?

thanks Shannon.

There are SE runs but be careful of the sandbanks because the position and depth of some are changing from week to week. Low tide sounds a bit dodgy at the level you mentioned.

Lowtide of 0.0. =
Take a skimboard.

i think that was Moz.

great spot to sail now Bribie has opened up. it's just the banks are constantly moving so you need to do a few safety runs prior to putting the hammer down or use small fins.

Thanks guys. I will keep it in mind next time I can make it up.

Took a seaplane flight from Maroochydore to The Gap two weeks ago. Not quite low tide. First good NE'er last night prompting me to get these up.

Happy Valley completely dry. Could be a good riding or jumping spot on the northern end of North Bribie Is. in a NE'er.


The Gap. New dry sandbar on the most-northern end of South Bribie Is. Getting a little shallow in some spots... may have lost the "good jumping" claim I made earlier this year... only time will tell. You can see the wave wrap around the dry sand, to make the wave stand up in front of you in a SE'er. Also can see the flyover-bar now has only one channel through it (was two channels in April).



Shallow water and some new sandbars off the southern end of North Bribie, making it look quite safe when having a bad day.

I made a prediction a while ago that the new bar to the bottom of Kings beach might become a good wave sailing spot - Just need wind.

Went out Tuesday in the SE. There is enough water with a 37cm fin at dead low but as usual - checks your depths - find a line to follow with reference points and stick to it. And watch out for submerged logs

Went out the Monday before Moz at low tide with a 38cm and found a sand bank...... ouch

It's getting more deceptive. I heard you had a disagreement with one of our 1000 sandbanks.
