NOTE: The above data is for deep water ocean swells, and does not mean that waves at the beach will be that size or direction. It does however provide a valuable indication of the swell size, direction and winds for the next 72 hours. The most reliable indication of actual conditions is an Eyeball Surf Report, as on most of our surf report pages.

Crantock Beach is the next beach south west from Fistral and is a wide expanse on soft sand with a tidal estuary - the River Gannel. As a result, there are lots of very strong currents and rips for the inexperienced. This is a longboarders spot when working, but can be a long walk.
