Bournemouth / Boscombe Surf Report and Forecast
UK + Ireland

Stormrider Guide Local Information

BournemouthWave Type: pier/groyne/jetty peaksBreaks Over: sandBest Tide: All tidesBest Wind: Northerly
Fun, beachbreak peaks with sandbars anchored by the pier. East side is the most popular spot on the Channel coast, with lefts heading back into the pier and faster rights leading down the beach. More peaks on the west side without the SW wind protection. Paddling channel next to pier. On a solid SW groundswell (or SE windswell) and N wind there are barrels for the taking. Always crowded with locals, students, beginners, etc. Year-round pay car park by the beach, hard to get a spot in the summer.

BoscombeWave Type: pier/groyne/jetty peaksBreaks Over: sandBest Tide: All tidesBest Wind: Northerly
Similar set up to Bournemouth but the banks aren't as reliable. Englands first artificial reef should be open by autumn 2007. Parking above the beach.

SouthbourneWave Type: pier/groyne/jetty peaksBreaks Over: sandBest Tide: All tidesBest Wind: North Easterly
Short, sucky, shorebreaks with sandbars anchored by many groynes. Popular with bodyboarders. Parking by the beach.
