The UK's most consistent spot is.....?

Postby Dantastic1985 » Mon Aug 20, 2012 10:27 am

Hello surf peeps.

I am trying to discover the UK's most consistent spot for my weeks break on the second week of September. At present were headed to Sennen but I really dont want to sit in the van and converse with the mrs. I want to be Practising my wipe outs in the sea.

Any help appreciated.

Cheers.

Dan

Sennen is a sensible choice. If Sennen is not working, there are waves within reach that work in a variety of swells and winds.

On a side note, I wonder what the UK's most consistent spot actually is (statistically). I'd love to hear.

JoshSurf, that comes as no surprise :lol:

I doubt it. She will not go near the sea. Hates it! Bit of a touchy point, i said she can get fat on cream teas and wine while i surf all day every day. Thats a fair trade off...

My last trip to saunton caused me to be single! Now I go when I want and I never have to talk to anyone when I don't want to! I'm becoming a bit unbalanced though , if you know what I mean ........

I know exactly what you mean, your right forearm is massive compared to your left...
