early morning mist


Yesterday morning I found myself on one of my daily early morning walks
to check the surf before work. Hidden by a thick curtain of mist the surf was invisible.
I only could hear the waves in the distance roaring to the shore
while the sun was slowly warming up the day...

south coast sun





When the swell turns big and the wind is from the north I always ask myself if it is going to be another one of those endless drives round and round the south coast getting really frustrated ending up back at the overcrowded and average beach you started at - this weekend turned out different.

After a nice Saturday lie in and relaxed breakfast, I was on the way for another search down south. After meeting some friends, we arrived at a spot I had wanted to surf for a while but never caught right. To my surprise, it was quietly peeling along with just two guys out. I plunged myself into the sea and surfed this nice little reef in a beautiful setting scoring some long rides. Unfortunately, it got a bit crowded later on, but who cares the sun was out.

We spent the whole day at the beach and when I drove home, I felt content after an amazing day.
