32 hour surfing session that ended well

I know in those areas far from the equator tide changes can cause extreme currents. I have heard that in certain topographical conditions such as a bay with a narrow opening that even boats can have trouble with the currents generated. It's good to be familiar with the tides and currents in the area you surf. Where I surf however it makes some difference but very little difference comparatively because tide changes are small.
