Smooth water at low tide. It can get choppy as the tide comes in. Surf at times when its windy. At high tide, there is a shingle beach to rig up and launch, there are no groins directly off this spot but there are groins and obstruction down wind. Pebbles at the top, but 2ish hours after high tide nice flat sand appears. This beach works really well in neap tide and is ridable in most tide states. A road and then promenade behind strip of beach dedicated to kite launching (east of the beach huts). The majority of people are west along the beach, however you do get a few fools deciding to go swimming where the kiters are. Look out for Southwest winds for a great day on the water. Good winds all year round. 3mm wetsuit in the summer, 5mm in spring and autumn. Surfing is all year round for those who don't mind the cold. The sea is up at 16°C in summer and down to 6°C in winter. Season April to November. Water: Shallow, Flat, Chop, Smallwave, Mediumwave. Features: Shop, Rescue, Toilet, Food, Parking. Rider ability: Beginner, Intermediate, Expert.
