Following the large swell of 2 weeks ago and follow up swells, Goats beach has a series of banks at the moment that are the best I have seen in 10 years of living in Tassie.

Naturally they are better on a rising tide, but seem to able to hold anything up to a 4m swell, when you should really be surfing at Wedge anyway.

Early winds have been favourable all week and the banks don't look like disappearing anytime soon. Should be crowded on the weekend.

No photos, too busy surfing

Been a while since the last update, but not much has changed since then.

After a bit of a flat spell last week the banks at Goats filled in a bit, but seem to be making a small comeback after 4 days of kind of shitty weather and a bit of swell.

Its all about timing at the moment, and getting in before the wind moves on shore.

Pity about all the rain as before Friday it was definitely feeling like spring.

Not much of a good outlook for the next day or 2, stay home watch tele, do your tax and hope the winds go northerly for a while.

1m sw = dead flat. You could waterski on the South Arm beaches today, and there is no real good swell on the way either.

there has been a few decent waves at sandpits in the right tide and wind, but otherwise it seems the summer weather pattern is just about set in for a while. meaning small waves and long drives to spots that catch the swell better than round here.

Some waves today at Eaglehawk, but the NE swell should be dying out as well.

get in the car and go searching.
