Historical data

Location guide

Fistral Beach, located in Newquay, Cornwall, United Kingdom, is renowned for some of the best surfing conditions in the United Kingdom. It's a go-to destination for experienced surfers and beginners alike, but the conditions can be a bit challenging and exhilarating at the same time. One of the first things a surfer might notice about Fistral Beach is its exposure to the North Atlantic swell. This exposure consistently delivers excellent waves pleasing to surfers all year round. In summer, the waves can be relatively calmer, making it ideal for beginners and intermediate surfers. On the other hand, in winter, the swell can be quite strong, resulting in powerful, daunting waves, a spectacle experienced surfers look forward to. The sand-bottomed beach break at Fistral Beach is another highlight that works in all tide states. When waves break at a beach break like this, they can come in different shapes and forms, meaning every ride is unique. This factor adds to the appeal for surfers, as it provides a chance to test their skill levels and build experience. The beach is also well-sheltered, offering optimally clean surf when the wind blows from the south. The surf at Fistral Beach isn't just about the quality of the waves and the swell exposure; the amenities and the accessibility of the area do play an integral part. There's a modern surf centre at the beach offering lessons and board hire, which adds to the convenience factor. Plus, the on-site facilities such as parking, cafes, and shops make Fistral Beach an all-round fabulous surfing destination. Overall, surfing conditions at Fistral Beach epitomize the charm and versatility of UK's surf culture. It's a place where you can paddle through the azure waters while enjoying the picturesque view, making the whole surf experience nothing short of fantastic.
