It’s funny how often feedback on Surfsouthoz filters back through friends and acquaintances. Most recently, a mate related a conversation he’d had with two friends who were bemoaning the much maligned “shred factor” quoted in every daily report. One was heard to say “how could they call today a 4? It wasn’t even a 2!”, […]
It’s hard to say if it was the drizzly, overcast weather, or cautious swell forecasts in the wake of repeated disappointment that kept the masses at bay on the morning of Sunday March 7. While many slumbered warm in bed, sobering up and shaking off the after effects of long weekend binge drinking, West facing […]
Surfsouthoz has offered access to surf report archives since the launch of the re-vamped website in 2007, with historical data dating back to mid 2006. For some time though, South Australia’s longest running internet surf report has been sitting on data that goes further back. Possibly the best historical record of daily surf conditions on […]
With the Middleton side of the coast struggling to hold anything shortboardworthy, the obvious destination for something resembling a wave today was Newland Head Conservation Park.
By mid arvo temperatures were nudging one hundered in the old money, and swarms of relentless, satanic flies desecended on everything that moved - but there was some relief. Although […]
Months of top secret testing and development have finally borne fruit, with the first production samples of our brand new fins literally lobbing on the desk at the corporate HQ of surfsouthoz Monday afternoon. The Rincons are the first fins in a range that will slowly be released over summer 2009-10, and are fully compatible […]
Talk to any South Ozzie surfer and they’ll have a story of an epic session somewhere along the ten odd km of coast South-East of Middleton. You’ll hear about the 5 second tube they got inside Drib’s Bay, the 200m long right hander they snagged off the Grassy Knoll on a six foot day, or […]
As the Queen’s birthday weekend bears down upon South oz surfers, many are considering their options and hedging their bets… but will the last long weekend for 4 months deliver the goods as it has in previous years?
Perhaps I should start by giving you the good news, in that it won’t be a […]
Since April 2000 Surfsouthoz has delivered surf reports, pics, and surf news to South Australian surfers. Over that time we’ve established ourselves as the most reliable and longest running free surf report in SA - and created a respected brand along the way.
But we don’t just deliver surf reports and info… now we deliver surf […]
The 4 day long weekend in April always holds the promise of the fabled Easter swell, with surfer’s minds conjuring solid lines of corduroy and water still warm enough for a 3/2 steamer - even a springy. Over Easter 2009, it looks like we’ll at least be blessed with light winds and clean conditions for […]
Work recently commenced on a large scale commercial development at South Port beach on the Fleurieu Peninsula.
Merkin Marina is backed by a consortium of Saudi businessmen, and will be the largest commercial coastal development since the marina at Wirinna Cove, near Normanville. The initial stages have involved stabilising the cliffs at the southern end […]
