Creek sweet surf! Where is that?  When i get back in Vero beach in 2 weeks we will have to go surf. I usually hit Melbourne.
Catching really good surf right now on Bequia. Also trying wing foiling which has been fun but exhausting.

I had a solo session a few days ago. Clean sets out of nowhere all to myself for a while anyway. I had a seal visitor which is usually not a good sign ::)

Good for you, Rick.  Check what was happening a day ago a little north of the Cape.

Nice waves! I know you had a fun time surfing those waves.

Thanks for sharing the pictures.

Too bad we're not getting any surf from it.

Mr Big has moved to Georgia. Wife of a friend took this at the end of a great wave somewhere
in Florida.

Great see you soon.  We moved to VB not knowing it was famous for shore break pounders and nothing more.  Great flat water scenic paddles, but for surf its 20 min drive south or 30 min drive north...Spessard Holland in Melbourne is my usual break because I am usually alone. A lot of people go to Whiteys in Sebastian.

Hey everybody! ... don't believe these propaganda pictures of FL. Take my advice, you really don't want to come down here. The surf is terrible, the waters dirty & cold, sharks everywhere, traffic & parking are terrible, crappy weather, its crowded, mean people. Yep, better you just stay at home.  ;D
