Famed outfielder Jamie Durie spent his 54th birthday doing what he loved in Palm Beach on Monday while surfing the tumultuous waves.
The Backyard Blitz star was accompanied by his girlfriend Ameka Jane as the couple spent some quality time with their sons Beau, two, and Nash, one.
Looking completely at ease among the crashing waves, Jamie was left completely soaked as he dove and surfed through the salt water.
At one point, he seemed to almost lose his balance, but quickly corrected himself before falling into the sea.
Once Jamie was in the water, he could be seen trying to remove his saturated black wetsuit as he sat on a nearby park bench.

After taking the time to dry off, Jamie wrapped a mint green towel around his neck as he loaded his car with his surfboards.
He then helped his two Rhodesian Ridgeback dogs into the back of the car and placed a white tarp to protect the interior of the vehicle.
Jamie was last seen in November last year looking dejected as he left Perth Airport.
The Backyard Blitz star was accompanied by his girlfriend Ameka Jane as the couple spent some quality time together with their sons Beau, two, and Nash, one (all pictured).
Looking completely at ease among the crashing waves, Jamie was left completely soaked as he dove and surfed through the salt water.
At one point, he seemed to almost lose his balance, but quickly corrected himself before falling into the sea.

Jamie arrived at the beach with a huge green surfboard under his arm.
He could be seen walking through the sand with the board in his hand.
He was all smiles once he entered the water.
At one point, he appeared to be calling out to his partner Ameka.
Jaime had no qualms about catching the huge waves that arose
He paddled hard through the water before trying to get up.
Jamie stood easily on the board.
The famous gardener was an expert in the water as he rode several waves.
He could barely wipe the smile off his face after successfully surfing a wave.
Jamie didn’t seem fazed by the cloudy day.
He was seen pushing a trolley loaded with luggage and bags while his girlfriend Ameka was glued to his side.
Two-year-old daughter Beau seemed content to sit in the stroller as her famous father pushed her, while her mother held nine-month-old Nash.
Despite looking a little tense at the chaos of the Christmas holidays at the time, Jamie and Ameka broke into a smile as they stopped to chat.
Jamie struggled to remove the wetsuit that stuck to her body after becoming saturated.
He already had a green sweater on hand as he pulled down the top of his wetsuit.
Jamie then put a towel around his neck as he packed up his surfboards.
He could be seen wrapping the ankle strap around the end of his board.
Jamie had two little brown dogs that accompanied him on his day off.
The dogs were on their best behavior while Jamie juggled their leashes with his board.

The couple certainly had a lot to be happy about, as Jamie just splashed out $3.6 million on a retreat in the hinterland of Byron Bay, near the popular tourist haven Nashua.
Called Akubra, the streamside farm has a sprawling 30-hectare tract of land that can house up to 40 head of cattle, more than 300 sheep, chickens, llamas and goats.
The television presenter and his partner will also enjoy a five-hole golf course, fire pit and lagoon-style pool, reported Real Estate.com.au in October.
With three bedrooms in the main family house, the property also features a detached cottage, a large farm shed and six paddocks.
