Fast, hollow waves breaking on sandbars held in place by groynes on this 1.5mile stretch of beach. Hollow peaks at low to mid tide and good rights into the River Don.
Watch out for groynes and backwash off the seawall at high tide. Strong cross-shore currents, shipwrecks and tank barrier blocks tank traps?? to avoid. Park on the esplanade.

This graph shows the percentage of days that had a ridable wind swell (7 seconds period or more) or groundswell (10 seconds period or more) of over 3ft. It also shows the dominant wind direction. Not all of these days will neccessarily give great surf, and very short lived wind swells or longer period secondary swells may produce surf not recorded, but it gives a clear idea of the seasonal trend and a rough guide to the chances of scoring something ridable.
