Rest Bay Surf Photo: 'Rest Bay' by H Murray

8am Wednesday. Swell came in last night and we got some quite tidy sets. However, it's dropped again this morning and Rest Bay is about 2ft on sets. Coney Beach is 1-2ft. Getting up too high in Rest Bay and it will drop quickly with the dropping tide - maybe 1-2ft dropping to 1ft. We should get 2ft on the push later this afternoon.
