Probabily, but all down the east side of the bay will be onshore (straigth on shore at brighton, so be careful)

StKilda would still be on... you heading out?

rye/rosebud/tootgarook are real gusty in a westerly, but nice and flat

forecast is aying norwesterlies so i would say brighton will be your best bet other then that rosebud would be ok till it swings to a westerly. flip a coin, thats what im gonna do, always seem to head to the wrong location tho

I was going to head to Brighton tomorrow too but some prick broke into my car so it's out of action for the moment. Stole $10 worth of change and left behind my gps, $300 sunnies and a brand new pair of asics...

The joys of Melbourne junkies...

Might try public transport to get down there.
