Todays Surf Forecast for Whitsand Bay

0-1ft , wind E/NE cleanish

General Surf Situation

We still have predominantly easterly winds (offshore) on the north coast. However there is very little swell coming through and in some north coast spots the wind could flatten out little surf there is. The south coast will be choppy (and flat) on the east facing beaches and flat on the south and south west facing spots. Saturday is probably the best chance for a mellow session on the north coast with the the swell dropping off on Sunday.

NOTE: The above data is for deep water ocean swells, and does not mean that waves at the beach will be that size or direction. It does however provide a valuable indication of the swell size, direction and winds for the next 72 hours. The most reliable indication of actual conditions is an Eyeball Surf Report, as on most of our surf report pages.

Whitsand Bay A greatly over-looked surfing location probably because you have a long walk in places to get to the ocean. So often going un-surfed!! There is still a good feel about the place, so show respect to the locals when visiting & you will be respected & enjoy your surfing more.
