Historical data

Location guide

The surfing conditions at Porthcurno, United Kingdom, can be described as variable and often dependent upon the season. Sitting on the southwestern tip of England in the county of Cornwall, Porthcurno offers idyllic sandy beaches embraced by high cliffs on both sides, creating an intimate experience for surfers and beachgoers alike. During the summer months, Porthcurno can dish out some exceptional surfing conditions, primarily due to its exposure to the Atlantic Ocean's swell. This period usually receives consistent waves, making it suitable for all surfing levels, with wave heights varying from 1-2 meters. On the other hand, the water temperature could range from 13 to 18 degrees Celsius, which would require wearing a wetsuit. Throughout the winter season, the surfing scene at Porthcurno becomes more challenging. This time brings stronger and more irregular wave conditions owing to the Atlantic storms, making it more suitable for experienced surfers. Conversely, the water temperature drops significantly which often discourages casual surfers, though the more experienced surfers are up to the challenge, donning thicker, winter-suitable wetsuits. A special mention for the beach of Porthcurno, it is renowned for its turquoise waters and fine white sand, making the beach visually spectacular and inviting for surfers. However, it's worth noting that surfing here requires caution and respect for the ocean owing to the potentially strong rip currents. In conclusion, Porthcurno offers a sublime surfing experience across varying conditions. From summer's serene sessions to winter's adventurous rides, there's something to cater for all types of surfers- provided they're prepared and respectful of the ocean's might.
