United Kingdom
On a cold, clear-blue spring day, park up and walk to the cliff edge to check out the surf. If all you can see is fog, take the risk. Put your wetsuit on, walk down the cliff path and paddle in – 50m later, if you are lucky, you won't be able to see the shore and you have the best chilled, clean waves in England to yourself. If you're even luckier, you can share the waves with your mates. I've surfed round the world, and this is still my most amazing surf experience.
Cayton Bay, Just south of Scarborough.
