Description

Chapel Porth - Cornwall, UK Chapel Porth features a powerful beach break with right-hand waves, breaking over a sandy bottom interspersed with rocks. The spot is accessible via a short 5-15 minute walk and is open to the public. Optimal conditions occur at low and mid tide, with swells primarily coming from the west. This picturesque surf spot is popular among surfers of all skill levels, though it can become crowded on sunny weekends. The beach tends to disappear at high tide, making timing crucial for a successful session. While it may not always produce the best waves, the forgiving sandy bottom makes it a safer option for wipeouts. With a nearby National Trust car park, Chapel Porth is a convenient and enjoyable destination for surfers looking to experience the beauty of Cornwall.
