Swanage surf guide

Swanage is a beach town located on the southern coast of England. It's known for its scenic views and a relaxed vibe. The spot attracts surfers looking for a casual session, especially when the conditions are right. It's a pretty straightforward place to catch some waves and hang out by the sea.

The surf at Swanage can vary quite a bit. You can find beachbreak waves, especially when the swell is coming from the East or SouthWest. It handles swell sizes around 1ft (0.3 meters), which means it's ideal for smaller days. The waves break over sand, making it a softer option for surfers. You can find both left and right waves here, depending on the conditions. The best times to surf are during low, mid, and high tides, with west winds generally being preferable to keep things clean.

Overall, Swanage is a chill spot for surfers who enjoy a more laid-back experience. While it might not be the most epic surf destination, it covers the basics and offers some fun rides when the swells are in the right direction. It's worth a visit if you're in the area and looking to catch some waves.
