These
photographs were taken at the mouth of Fairy Creek. It enters
the ocean between North
Wollongong Beach and Puckey's Beach. There was a wind
blowing from the west. This "flattens" the sea
and also leads to very clean wave breaks. There were a few
surfers at the "creek mouth" this day. Saturday,
24th April, 2004.
I used to surf there with a good mate named Greg Dent. We would go down every
morning before school or university. We would either surf there or at North
Wollongong
Beach. The only time I ever saw a shark in the water was there. We caught
the
next wave in to shore.
I remember I went to the surf just about every day in 1978. That was a good year.
Every day, no matter how cold Greg and I tried our best to catch a wave somewhere.
Of course, when there were storms we gave it a miss, bought some chips and simply
watched the waves. |
