What a corker especially on a huge easterly surf gav-rocks at mid tide. Check out the sandbank on the far beach at low tide. Steep waves when it kicks off. SHOT SKIN!
Its no Porthleven, but a Biscay Low and a Spring Tide, chucks up a sucking right that breaks over the reef on the east beach. Beware of the bastard rip!
Kennack has a rippin' hollow break when it's offshore, with a good shorebreak. There are a variety of breaks for any surfer. When it's big it ain't good for beginners as there is a wak rip that takes you out without you noticing.
A good beach for beginners waves. Usually at 1 to 3 feet it is not very exciting for the more experienced but on autumnal days it gives a pretty good beach break and can often rise to 4 feet. Watch out for the rocks on either side of the cove.
A clean beach when on a north westerly but the small beach next to it on the other side of the reef is better. But it has a twat of a rip but apart from that good beach break.
