The Wave
Best with west swell and southeast offshore wind, then check it from low to mid tide.
The rivermouth sections are easier, the Bowgie end gets heavier, and the sandbars decide how much of the beach is worth paddling for.

Crantock
Crantock is a long North Cornwall beach at the mouth of the Gannel, with a rivermouth at one end and the Bowgie peak at the other so the beach behaves like a multi-break surf zone. It is a classic Newquay escape with enough shape to stay interesting when the crowd moves on. Get the latest surfing conditions, forecast, and tide details for Crantock in North Cornwall.
