There must be a good reason no one is surfing that?! I'd love to see a wave like that here

oh mate, i have a whole lot more from this day, i'll have to upload. The wave in picture is just the shore break, this beach is protected by a reef about 100m out ... the waves on the other side of the reef were WHHOOOOOAAAAA ..... like what you see in the background smashing into the rocks .... and you're right you know it's big when no one in newcastle is out surfing, i went to 6 beach breaks this day to find someone brave enough to take pictures of them and there was not a single soul haha .... ive lived here my whole life and i cant remember seeing any bigger. It would have been a clean 4-5metre (5-6yd) swell. To give you an idea, the white fence you see on the cliff face in the background would be 15m up and that white spray is about the same height. I'll upload some more ... even if just to my scrapbook to show you :D

thanks Mena, the waves were sooo big this day, and the wind was blowing offshore so there was lots of spray ... it wasnt that hard to get the rainbow, just pick the right spot and all the waves were doing it :D I'm not saying there hasnt been bigger in Newcastle but this was the biggest i have seen
