Gold & Sunshine Coast Report issued at 5.55am Sunday 9th June 2024

Weather Forecast: Sunny, with a top temperature of 22-23°

Wind Forecast: 5-10kts NW/SW early, freshening a little through the morning, easing to about 10kts this afternoon and possibly swinging N/NE, if the sea breeze effect comes into play

Swell: 0.75m E/SE

Tides: Mooloolaba: Low @ 4.26am & 3.34pm … High @ 9.49am

Snapper Rocks: Low @ 4.25am & 3.26pm … High @ 9.54am

Best waves: Look for small waves on the beach breaks and the points. Either side of high tide the points will be a bit full, but early this morning and through the afternoon on the lower parts of the tide, when there’s less water on the banks, they’ll be better 

Best Beaches: A sunny day is expected and most beaches will be pleasant. The forecast air temperature is 22-23° and water temperature is about 21-22°. There’s inshore holes and gutters along the open stretches of beach and any rips and sweep working around them, will be enhanced as the water drains off the beach on the late morning to afternoon ebb tide, so swim in the patrolled areas marked by the red and yellow flags
