Two weeks ago Pete and I set out in my "newly converted to be camping ready" van and headed to Byron Bay to meet up with another friend Paul from Noosa.
After a very, so cold you had to sleep in a beeny night in the Oxley Ranges, we arrived in Byron Sunday afternoon.
Zooming out from The Pass the ocean looked like blue jelly sprinkeld with cracked pepper. It was so busy, but still we managed a few waves :-)
Monday morning and the promise of a new southerly ground swell, we headed down to Lennox and Boulders to check out the points, it was pumping! We ended up at flat rock rock a Barrelling 6-8 feet on the inside, and with only 3 guy's out and no one on our section we had the place to ourselves, Awesome! Awesome! Awesome!
Only to return Tuesday and see that the swell had Jacked! Paul and I watched Boulders for a while and in half an hour many tried but one guy made the drop, being so Southerly it was running like a frieght train and at Double overhead plus and one sweet session in the bag, I was just happy to watch.
We returned to Byron and had a nice mellow session on the longboards. Paul Surfed my latest Hollow board a 6'5" Retro Single based on MP's morning of the earth ride.
So as well as some amazing swell we also had some beautiful weather and Thanks to Pete some food to feed the Soul and fill the belly.
It was so tranquil and Byron also offers some great Organic food and Great Coffee. It really is a special place..........
