Not much doing today, with really small swell. The best chance of getting a wave is to look for little beach breaks on the open beaches this morning while the wind is light offshore. When the wind swings SE on the Gold Coast and SE/E on the Sunshine Coast and freshens during the morning, the points and bays on the north side of headlands will be the best options
