Our honest read on the weekend for Kent's surf beaches. Ratings are ours — set by surfers who know these breaks, never by an automated feed.

Strong westerly winds this weekend, weak surf around all of Kent but some small waves are possible..
Rip Advisory: No rips.
Swell dropping off from north direction very fast, some waves on south facing beaches as well.
Really small waves, some surfable and offshore conditions.
Should be relatively flat but some waves could come through.
Conditions change fast on this coast — always check the water yourself before paddling out.
