Two mornings this week, I made it out to the Swellies wave on the Menai Straits for a play. There is something great about being up & exhilarated early, having a great paddle and being home not too long after you would usually have breakfast. The large tides made for some fun surfing.

On the second morning, once the Swellies wave had died down, we moved across to the wave over the reef besides the cardinal marker. Conveniently, the wave there started working once the tide rose too high for the Swellies wave to form. The wave surged and got bigger about every 5-10 minutes. It looked really intimidating but was actually a nice smooth ride.
