Offshores at last! AND Big love to Matt and Zoe!
Sep 1st
It was great yesterday to have some clean waves at long last, and some fun surfing on the Newquay beaches. Today has gone flat, but tomorrow is still looking like it’s picking up, and looking good for the weekend till end of Saturday! Roll on those waves!!
Also we’d like to say a Big Hello to Matt and Zoe who are getting married on Saturday at Fistral Blu! We wish them well and look forward to seeing them on their big day, and surfing with them this weekend too!
Pedal Power
Aug 29th
Cycling is the best and cheapest way to get aruond the area in South West France on our France Surf Holiday. You can hire a bike with helmet and bike lock near our campsite for a day or the week.
The roads are very safe to bike on and there are some lovely cycle paths around the woods behind the campsite. You can easily get to Hossegor by bike and of course, home again, but be careful if cycling after drinking! Of course we don’t recommend you cycle if you are under the influence!
Cycling is a great way to keep fit and helps your surfing; cycling strengthens your legs and excercises your lungs as well as your core. So get on your bike, and get fit out of the water as well as in it!
Fun in France
Aug 26th
Check out Kelly Slater on one of the bigger days in 2007! Don’t worry we won’t be surfing in waves this big!
It’s not long now till we head off to South West France for our France Surf Holiday, for hopefully some better weather and surf than we’ve had here! Cornwall has been disappoining to say the least! We’ve had a partcularly bad run of strong on-shore winds and a lack of any groundswell. The best we’ve had has been around 9 seconds wave period and a couple of foot wave height.
South West France will be better as they have much better (warmer) air and sea temperatures and will be getting better waves due to it’s positioning in the Bay of Biscay.
To join us from as little as £342 for a week of camping and surfing, see our France page for details.
Cross-shore hell!
Aug 19th
Well it was far from epic this afternoon. The wind got up even further after lunch, and we’d hoped that Watergate might be ok, but the winds were hellish and it was 20mph+ gusts and choppy waves!! Plus it was really cold! Summer wetsuit was not warm enough! AAgh! Roll on our France Surf Holiday where we hope to enjoy some decent swell and warmer seas!
