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.
 
Gwithian and Godrevy are located at the extreme NE of St. Ives Bay - a series of breaks from Godrevy at one end to the Island in St Ives at the other. A large expanse of sand at low tide, giving way to idyllic coves at high tide. This is reckoned to be one of the best surfing areas in England
