Isle of WIGHT

:D iT generally always has a good wave as long as there is swell but somtimes it is blown out by south westerly's niton always works though if compton is blown out. The isle of wight is an island (duh) off the south of england, are there are a lot of chicks who surfs always worth a visit if you are down this way

would like to visit more often, but the ferry prices are well overpriced!
i suppose this is good for the locals of the little island...stops invasion of surfers from the big little island...
