This morning there are some faint lines and clean, less than waist high waves in the middle. Faint and variable breeze. .... Don't forget that the tide plays an important role in wave quality and size at Porth Neigwl: Click here for details and also info on how we measure the wave height.

High Tide today is at 3.30pm (3.1m)

Surf Forecast For the rest of the day:
Tiny, clean waves through the rest of the day. Perhaps a bit of an increase with the tide this afternoon.

Outlook For Surf:
Small waves on Tuesday, clean and maybe a bit bigger than today. Wind offshore for much of the day then more northerly later. Very small waves on Thursday with a light or moderate northerly wind...By the way, quite a few people are being confused by the Magic Seaweed star system. The stars relate to the size and period of the swell, so often have little in common with the actual conditions on the beach - so always check the wind direction. There can be 3, 4 or 5 filled in stars and also a forecast for onshore gales, so the impression of epic conditions that the stars give, is rather misleading, as conditions could actually be unsurfable and dangerous. The Magic Seaweed site has more info on their stars. They can be useful, but only when used in the correct way ...Our hire rates remain at £5 per day for a suit and £5 per day for a board...
