hahaha!

Best bet for a surf if you are staying in Broome is a short drive to nearby Carnarvon or Exmouth. By outback standards this is virtually next door - being only around 10-15 hours.

Peak season in Broome itself is around July... You'll need a Mal and want to track Cyclones.

Check out a history of the Cable Beach (Broome) web cam.

Mind you I could be wrong, just never heard of any surf around Broome. Sort of like Adelaide (dammit).

PS. Poor surf confirmed on wannasurf.

..many thanks for the links Doug :D .. " yeh, i'd kinda got the idea from my cuz that surfing was bit of a non-starter around cable but loved the idea of being able to take a motox pretty much right onto a few beaches and do a lil scuba bizniz instead :wink: 8)

As long as i 'step into the liquid' then im a happy pappy .. and if it all does work out in a few years time and i bail to Oz, then i'll be able to fly to my best budz for surfing .. he and his Brizzy Gf' have just moved to 'Byron bay' is it ?.. my geography sux but im guessing thats the East coast :D

No worries.

And Byron is a WHOLE DIFFERENT kettle of scales.

I'll be sleeping on your lounge if you set up shop there :D But my jammies will be superglued on ;)
