North Devon in May

Postby derbyshire surfer » Mon Apr 21, 2008 2:18 pm

Hi,

I've got a week booked in Woolacombe for May 3 -10. Really looking forward to it as I've only surfed there once before.

I was just wondering if I will be needing my winter wettie over there or if I can get away with my 3x2?

Cheers

:D
