SOUTH COAST CORNWALL

Praa Sands: is good when the North coast is blown out, on a big north westerly. Good shorey at high tide.

The reef at Porthleven is an excellent wave- unfortunately everyone knows it, and crowds are a real problem. However, you might get lucky during a weekday and score one of the best waves in England. It works best when there's a low off Biscay and a NE wind. Best from mid to high tide, it is also surfed at low tide, when dangerously shallow; For experienced riders only.

Pentewen: is a SE facing beach break which works best at mid tide. It works on a SE or huge SW swell.

Whitsands: is a long SW facing break; At low tide there's a nice hollow shorebreak. There is a small wedge at main beach at high tide.

Less crowded than Whitsands, the next beach along , Tregantle works on the same conditions, however it is sometimes closed by the M.O.D.
