Description
Strathy Bay - Scotland
Strathy Bay features a beach break with both right and left-hand waves over a sandy bottom. The spot is sheltered from westerly and northwesterly winds, making it ideal when other locations are blown out. It works best at low and mid tide, with hollow and fun wave characteristics.
This relatively uncrowded surf spot is perfect for those seeking solitude, as you will rarely encounter other surfers. The beach is accessible via a short walk (5-15 minutes) from parking at the graveyard. Strathy Bay can handle various swell sizes, providing options for different surf styles. Be mindful of rips and undertow, and keep an eye out for seals in the area. With its scenic backdrop and consistent conditions, Strathy Bay is a hidden gem for surfers looking to escape the crowds.
