I was out on Bore beach for a few hours today. Spent around one hour in the water, I think. It was straight onshore wind (west) and a lot of messy waves. I struggled a lot to get out, and mostly just walked in the waves....
This was a really extreme day on the beach!!! Went to Bore and got a good session before the weather hit. It was rainy, sunny, windy, no wind and hail.
