HELP...Surf spots needed close to Largs/Scotland!!!

Postby mshapiro » Tue Nov 17, 2009 11:51 am

Anyone please HELP !!!!! I have recently moved to Largs on the West of Scotland and need to find those little spots near by....I know about Machrihanish and Coldingham(on the East Coast) but there must be some places maybe futher down the west coast near Ayr or Troon etc.. Maybe even futher down!!!! Can't always afford to travel 3 1/2 hours to get to Kintyre so any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!!! Stay safe......not so stoked Mick.

Sorry Mick. I grew up in Ayr and didn't know that surfing in the UK was even possible until my late teens!
The problem is that you have Arran, Mull of Kintyre and that great bloody rock Ireland in the way.
Very good windsurfing and Kite surfing all along that coast though!

I watched a power boat race in Largs once, that was fun.
