Wind on the beach

cross-shore

What the spot record warns about

  • Strong lateral tidal currents on the outgoing tide
  • Rapidly shifting sandbars and changing beach contours
  • Gusty, unpredictable wind funnelled off the cliffs
  • Rip currents (also flagged for surfing)
  • Very crowded on good-wind weekends
  • High tide severely limits usable beach space
