The knowledge of these secret spots are shared only with a few dedicated surfers amongst the UK surfing community. Only they know the precise locations of these excellent waves.

Here are some of the rarer top surf spots that are publicly shared, any surfing enthusiast can attempt these unless stated below:

Whitsand Bay

Within reach from Praa Bay and Falmouth this surf location can be hazardous and it’s only recommended for able surfers due to the drift wood from ship wreckages and dockyard waste obstructing certain zones. Surf this area in all tides and try to catch the wind as it blows North Easterly, swelling South Westerly.

Cromer

A few miles north and along the coast from Gorleston-on-Sea you’ll see the lovely location on Cromer – a beach that is ideal for beginners, gets crowded fast with an ideal northerly swell. Get surfing during mid to high tide for the best action but watch out for the rips!

Holywell Bay

Beach breaks with changing waves, all tides are good surf weather but surfs well on medium swells at high tide whilst the wind is best blowing easterly. Quite a safe surf here with average temperatures ranging from 8 degrees to 16 degrees centigrade. A good surf that’s ideal for any beginner!

Bournemouth Pier

Break type is beach / hollow with waves and currents flowing in every direction, it’s ideal to surf this beast when the wind is blowing North Westerly and the perfect tide is low to mid. It can get crowded and there can be some awesome rips, temperatures vary from 7 – 15 degrees centigrade. This is a perfect beginner’s ride.
