Highcliffe surf guide

Surf: General: Not super consistent but there are a series of groynes here that are edging out of the swell shadow cast by the IOW and Hengistbury Head, so will wake in a solid southwesterly swell. The best bet for a fun peak can be found in front of the car park or just to the east where good banks can form, best at low tide. Tides: All tides, best at low. Size: Thigh high to overhead. Wind: N Swell: SW. Bottom: Sand with shingle at High tide. Paddling: Easy when small, rips when bigger. Spot Rating: Fun banks in clean groundswell. Access: Cliff top car park overlooking breaks. Crowds: Crowd Factor: OK, can get busy. Local Vibe: Chilled. Environment: OK. Hazards: Rocky groynes, heavy and rippy when big. Season: December - February.
