Surf at Swansea?
I've been roped into a weekend at Blacksmiths Beach. Does anyone know where I can find some surf around there?
Head a bit north of swansea and youse might find some surf "friendly" beaches or youse could go a bit more north of a "bitch ya no" and you'll find heaps of things to ride right beside the road 
you'll be looking for someone to surf with rather than be worrying about crowds btw.

Hangabout!
You're talking about Blacksmiths Beach, just north of the Swansea channel on the Central Coast, aren't you Katherine?
But Munch, the bloody drongo, is giving you directions to waves near Swansea in Tasmania. Dont know why.....
Anyway...Blacksmiths is just a beachie, but the southern end, in the lee of the breakwall, is good under heavy southerly conditions. If it's this weekend your talking about then your laughing; the east swell should get in there and it'll be protected from the wind.
Caves Beach is the other side of the channel. Catherine Hill Bay is 10 mins south. Both have good waves, but both get crowded.
