Consistent, swell-sucking beachbreak just north of Land's End is Britain's most westerly beach. Punchy peaks with barrels when offshore on a medium swell and tide.
Car park and camping above the beach and plenty of facilities in Sennen.

Local Knowledge
As the most westerly beaches in the UK, both Sennen and especially Gwenvor are totally exposed and are often as rippy as it gets. Punchy, fast and fun when they're on, frustrating, draining and hard work when they're not. Normally mid-push works best as it gets too fat at high and weak at low, but on spring tides they hold a good size all they way up from mid to high with offshore conditions. If you need to get fit, frequent Gwenvor for a few weeks. Crowded as hell in the silly season. Places of outstanding beauty.

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.
