Stormrider Description
Consistent, classy beachbreak with sandbars sculpted by the River Avon. Right into the rivermouth and a peak on the main beach.
South Devon's best beach is always busy. Strong rips at size. Parking in the village and on Bigbury side of the river.

Local Knowledge
Pretty consistent beach break and nearly always crowded. Always holds a nice wally right and on smaller swells can offer a left depending on the tide. Lack of take off zones means it only takes a few guys on the peak to ensure you won't get a wave.

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.
