More about Mawgan Porth surfspot

General: This funnel shaped, cliff-lined bay is best at lower tides when the beach opens out, and in small to medium sized swells - too big and it closes out. The stream here can produce some nice little sandbanks with fun lefts at the southern edge and rights at the north. Higher tides suffer from backwash. Was considered an escape from the Newquay crowds but getting popular. Tides: Low to mid. Size: Thigh high to overhead. Wind: E Swell: W Bottom: Sand. Paddling: Easy paddle out. Spot Rating: Fun low tide waves, less crowded than the spots to the south.

Good for all surfers especially when small.

Parking across the road from the beach.

September - February.

Crowd Factor: Busy in summer. Local Vibe: Fairly relaxed.

Good.
