Surfs up



Those of you familiar with the Sunshine Coast would know that Noosa main beach , which is north facing, is quite protected and known as a child/family friendly beach with safe small waves.


The recent weather , which has bought flooding further south and into New South Wales, whipped up the waves and closed many beaches along the coast. Noosa remained open, with mainly the experienced board riders braving the rips for the ultimate ride near First Point.

This morning at high tide sandy beach was at a premium with the tourists enjoying an early morning dip under the careful watch of the wonderful members of our local surf lifesaving club.

TeamSAK, has your weather been awful for your holiday's? The radio would have us up north believe that anyon south of about Rockhampton has just floated away. (the Rocky thing may be an exageration)
