I´m Portugal bt I lived in Newquay for a couple of months. Newquay sucks bt Devon....

. I was there for the nacional club comp (back in 99) which newquay team won, wuuuppppyyyyy! (I was part of the team) Putsborough was really good and I think Croyd as well!!! miss it a lot.
Bt really good is my home break Espinho in Portugal. All winter pumping and still pumping now. The weather has been amasing, like summer... it´s pretty cheap too. 75 € (cheap airlines) from London to Porto and then (350€ in surfcamp-with surfaris/surf classes week) or 100€ just accomodation in hostel. Lots of UK people come over. It´s worth it and uncrowded....when u not surfing u can visit porto´s cbd or party, heheheh!
See u in the line up one day...
Peace out!
