South West Winds 11 August 2024

South West winds Painting the Ocean Beautiful

South West winds Painting the Ocean Beautiful: another dreamy little cold front swoops through KZN today Sunday 11 August 2024. Although it is not very offshore down the KZN South Coast, when it comes over the Bluff and onto the Durban beaches, it is totally offshore.

Over to Adam with a conditions update for today…

Now the wind is really blowing in another update right from the beaches in Durban…

The Bear was there! And he won! And he had to write his own story…and it is a classic.

Enjoy!

Durban before the wind this morning.

Mozambique 11 AM

Fatimas Nest with the anshore in full swing. Tomorrow it turns around finally.
Fatimas Nest on Praia do Tofo with the onshore wind in full swing at 11 AM Today. Tomorrow it finally turns around.

The wind has been blasting non-stop here for days. Straight onshore and right through my brain. Fogging things up! But, tomorrow we finally get an offshore blow.

It’s the same one that just hit Durban in the videos above.

Sardine Maps

Having intel to make the right decisions can save you hours and hours of frivolous sardine hunting. We have taken great care to log the activity of each sardine run since 2021. These records are available for anyone to look at.

If you study the maps year to year, you will see that right now we are only just in the middle of good sardine conditions. And that in previous years catches were made right into the summer months.
