It's not quite summer yet. It's not quite flat yet. It's not quite tourist season yet. It's not that crowded YET. The coming weeks are truly the calm before the storm of tourist season. Shortly our early morning dawn patrol drives will be swarmed by shoobs from the greatest reaches of our globe. Our 1 hour 15 minute commute to Cape Cod surf will soon turn into 3-10 mile back ups that will put even the MOST core surfers ' patience to the test. If the traffic isn't enough NOW is the time of year we have to pay $15 to park at VARIOUS locations around the area. Of course (if you know the right people) there are many ways around closed lots and beach parking fees. Get creative....go meet some locals....get to know the right people. It's the only way you will survive another summer in New England. Nova Scotia is looking very temping right now with the brunt of this past S/SW wind field driving surf far into the northern reaches. Not too many crowds up that way. Stay warm, keep the sun block on, don't drink too much in the sun, and try to keep your composure no matter how hectic these summer crowds are about to get!! We'll see if they're still around come November. Peace. JB.
Loads of thanks to Joey Jones for shooting photos.
More to come.
Can you say Cannon with water housing?
Hope for surf! G'day
