Sunrise Swell

Sunrise Swell

Sydney, Australia

Sunrise swells are often a fan favourite. There's something different about an early morning surf - feeling fresh and energised may be one part. There is also a scientific explanation: more off-shore wind, a surfer's love language.

Diurnal land sea wind patterns are an atmospheric phenomenon that occur in coastal regions. The rate of absorption of different land cover types varies: compared to the ocean, landmasses heat up faster during the day and cool faster at night. Air above the ocean is warmed at night, rises and causes air from above the landmass to be drawn out to sea to replace it.

As dawn breaks, the wind cycle is yet to rotate in the other direction - giving surfers just enough time for the perfect wave before the day's duties call.
