I must admit when I lived at Mona Vale I did get the occasional surf to myself.

By Thomo’s I will also claim Sharkies since it’s on the inside where they merge.

Horizon looks photoshopped?

something is reminding me of north narra but I’ve only surfed there once so not expecting to be correct.

actually I take that back because I think north narra has an ocean pool on the walk out on the rocks?

 


Im jealous of anyone surfing LA. Looks like my type of wave.
The photo was a bad cut and paste and crop to hide the name. Thats not the horizon.
Never heard of thommos except for the old pub thommos at mooloolaba. Crazy joint.
Youse are gonna kick yaselves when this is called out haha

The Joey then?

 

Haha yep north av.
Having never been there but seeing it hold BIG surf, then LA down the bottom it seems like a rad beach?

TO be honest the first shot looks like the wedge with the guys running across it.  THe north points of some of the beaches up here all look very similar and I’ve lived here my whole life.

Whaley Wedge

North Palmy or the joey

North Av

North Bilgola

THis isn’t a good shot of what the north end surf looks like but more a south swell south end day at Bungan

 

The first ine had the rest of the rocks cropped its def the same just diff angle. I thought north av and joey was the same going off the school?
Either way sydney is a surfers city and Im more than jealous of the quantity and quality of waves there.
The only problem its full of new south welshmen….oh shit did I just say that out loud.hahaha

I wouldn’t go so far as to say it’s quality and quantity, it most definitely does get very shit and crowded but there really isn’t anywhere else in Oz you can live in a major city and surf everyday.

Anyways here’s another to have a crack at.

 

The wave looks like raglan outside point. But I didn’t get out the back there so the headland not sure

Really NBG? really???
Wollongong, Newcastle, Coffs Harbour, Port Macquarie, Gold Coast….

Of the top 10 most populated cities in Aust, 5 of them you can surf.

Wollongong is definitely a major city you can surf everyday. From the city center the nearest surf beach is 5min walk. Even all the way up were I surf is only a 20min drive to the city center and up there is a surf break every 100m for a good 8km of coastline.
How long does it take to get from Avalon to Sydney?
