5 July 2024 Ocean Conditions Report KZN 7 am and 9 am updates

5 July 2024 Ocean Conditions Report KZN: Good morning and welcome to today’s Ocean Conditions Report prepared right from the beach.

9 am

This is the 9 am Report from Ajay in Mzamba in the Transkei…

7 am

And the first report of the day by Adam at 7 am this morning in Durban

Yesterday’s big buster southwest wind will have had a grand impact on the ocean conditions today. There is a rolling south swell and the morning will paint a very pretty picture.

More wind from the south all day. Getting quite feisty after noon.

Sardines

So if you are also on the hunt for sardines, things are looking quite ok. That rolling south swell is just what the sardines use to get mobile against the prevailing north-to-south Agulhas Current.

It has been an incredibly warm year for KZN water. It’s got to drop sometime soon!

Spearos

The warm water brings the couta. And the spearos are revelling in the same warm water. Here is a great story from this past week…

Plus a video report from The Bear of the Master Watermen website.

But ok stay tight to The Sardine News. We are also on the move today. We will be starting in the Umzumbe area since there was a large shoal being hammered to pieces of the Wild Coast Sun late yesterday afternoon.

Heading this way!
