But with the beautiful surroundings, I didn’t really mind the tranquility of the empty beach scene!

With the incoming tide, the waves were kind of starting to pick up a little more too.

Even with the heaviest of wind gusts this afternoon, there were still some clean looking perfectly tapering little peelers.

The photos actually do the waves later in the afternoon much more justice than they really were. The winds really made it pretty tricky to get into most of them.

It seems that as that tide always starts to push in here, the waves always seem to grow in size. This place loves more water on the reef.

Nothing better than seeing a frothed out grom running into the water for a few more fun ones for last light.

And last light was pretty EPIC, I must say!!!

So looks like the waves will remain this size for a couple more days and then we have a nice little bump in swell predicted for Friday and some nice juicy waves for the weekend! Until then… as always hope to see you back here mañana for Hump day Wednesday! Cheers ~
