East Runton Spot Guide

About East Runton

Best known break on this part of the coastline, an average section of beach break with chalk-flint reef offering short rights and longer lefts. Best from mid to three quarter tide. Like many breaks here its exposed to winds. Water is brown from the fine sediment.
