South wind sucks!

T.S. Maria and her associated weather seems to have passed us, its a beautiful morning out in Rodney Bay today.
We got some good beach break surf on saturday at a very remote beach on the east coast, totally glassy and big solid east swell doing its thing... pretty sweet vibe at 6 in the morning,  4 wheel driving off road for 1/2hr  through the jungle (stopping off only to collect guava and avocados) to arrive on a totally deserted beach with the only sound the roar of spitting barrels, gotta love the unspoilt Southern Caribbean! ... Well, some people are trying to spoil it, local builders down the beach this morning mining sand!! check the "lake" in one of the pics on the beachfront, a result of people removing the beaches bit by bit for personal gain, i sure wouldnt want my house built with beach sand (unwashed) imagine how little time your reinforcing has being packing in salty sand concrete!!

Got a few pics from over the weekend, forgot my board attachment unfortunately for the morning surf sesh and the light wasnt to good either.

We could see waves barreling and spitting from wayy up here! ... I think its solid today


Sand mining consequences .... where's the beach ??

Time to paddle out

freaky trees 

Unfortunately by the afternoon the SSE wind had picked up and ruined it all for us, we still had sweet afternoon limin' on the east coast with a few rum and cokes and BBQ chicken.
Looks like some wind forecast for later on this, hopefully we can finally get out on the kites again!
