READING THE SEAโ€ฆ

Is it worth a session at St Ives?

At 0.5 m it's small โ€” small, gentle surf โ€” ideal for beginners and longboards. The swell period is on the shorter side, so expect choppier, weaker surf than the height alone might imply. This is the open-sea figure โ€” the wave that actually breaks at a given peak depends on the spot's shape and the state of the tide, so treat it as a steer, not a promise. The water is 14.4ยฐC โ€” cold.
