I’ve previously said “there’s no such thing as a secret spot in the UK, just inaccessible waves with less crowds”.
Some guys at a well known Secret Spot in Yorkshire beg to differ, and argue there’s still waves out there to discover on your own or with a few carefully chosen buddies.
The Yorkshire coastline is geologically diverse with many points, reefs, coves and beaches. Coupled with a 180 degree swell window, it provides many different spots that fire in the many different weather conditions.
Next time the surf is on – instead of jumping straight in, study a map, look at Google Earth and go exploring. You may just find a few hidden gems to reward your time and effort.
Enjoy your search.
