Getting up at 4am and getting changed into an already wet wetsuit in a freezing cold (and probably rainy) car park may not sound like fun to many, but to watch the sun emerge from behind Cornish cliffs as you paddle out into uncrowded waves with just a few friends, is British surfing paradise. But if you got up this early, the waves will make it all worthwhile. Sharing the natural beauty of early morning waves and a beautiful coastline with just a few other enthusiastic surfers makes these experiences so special, far removed from the aggressive and competitive atmosphere found elsewhere in UK surf culture. The freezing conditions and early start make every wave you catch all the more gratifying, and afterwards, muscles comfortably aching, you can enjoy a fresh Cornish pasty from a local village knowing you deserve it.

The rich south-west coast line provides a wealth of opportunity, especially off-season.
