Description
Joss Bay - Broadstairs, Kent
Joss Bay features a beach break with both left and right waves, breaking over sandy bottoms mixed with rock. This popular surf spot has been a staple since 1968, attracting large crowds, especially during summer and on big swells. It offers instant access, located just outside Broadstairs, marked by a prominent lighthouse.
Known as Kent's main surf destination, Joss Bay caters to various skill levels with its diverse wave types. The spot works well at all tides, with rising and falling tide movements. Surfers can expect a laid-back vibe, but should be prepared for crowded conditions, particularly on weekends. While the waves can be fun and hollow, caution is advised due to rips, rocks, and localism. With convenient parking nearby, Joss Bay remains a favorite for both locals and visitors eager to enjoy the surf.
