Sennen Surf Guide
This crescent shaped, west facing swaithe of golden sand is the most exposed break on the north coast, vacuuming up small, summer, Atlantic swells and delivering fun waves. By late Autumn, the banks are properly groomed to produce clear, crisp, hollow waves. The southern end close to the car park is more sheltered in bigger swells.
Local Vibe
Tolerant with humility and respect.
Crowd Factor
Crazy in summer, do-able in the autumn/winter.
