The Bear delivers our 8AM KZN Ocean Conditions Report this slightly choppy winter morning
The Bear delivers our 8AM KZN Ocean Conditions Report this slightly choppy winter morning: A big thank you to The Bear for delivering our KZN 8AM Ocean Conditions Report. The Bear is standing in for Adam Kamdar who has taken some well-deserved time off in the bush.
Over to The Bear…
Conditions
Are quite choppy this morning. Morning sickness as it’s known in the classics. But with the promise of a light wind from the south after lunch, today could also turn out to be a peach.
The south west wind will airbrush that ocean into perfection where it will stay the next few days of tranquility.
The water is warm and crystal clear in most places. Divers are diving! And some noteworthy catches are being made. It is a very good idea, as a fisherman, to keep tabs on these spearos. They hold all the answers. They actually see the fish and what they are up to down there.

Tides
As is often associated with calm weather like this, the tides are in neaps. Hardly moving much with a low co-efficient making things even calmer. This is a great time to be an ocean-goer.
Sardines
Are nowhere to be seen at the moment. However, we don’t ever lose hope because just as suddenly as the sardines dissapear, they reappear. Often right into the summer months.
