Swell from Hurricane Danielle is now arriving on the coast of NW Europe and for much of France, Britain and Ireland, it is meeting offshore winds. September conditions do not get much better than this. Swell height is around the 1m mark but the period, in the range 15-20 secs, means that exposed breaks are generally well overhead on the well-separated sets. Drop everything and get on it! Should last through the weekend, with the period getting shorter and the wave height growing.

Jesse from MONTSERRAT writes about Belham Valley Rivermouth surf break:
Belham Valley or as we call it here "Pelican Point" is absolutely a great break when we actually have waves ha-ha. It is a smooth clean over a minute ride on a good day that is defiantly worth experiencing if you are lucky enough to be there on the right day. Winter time is indeed the best time of the year to come get lucky on this wave. Only about five of us on island actually surf so when the waves are good it really is a little piece of paradise! Pictures of the break are available if wanted for the site. Hopefully tropical storm earl brings some waves are way this Sunday/Monday! Like to thank the maker of this site for putting Montserrat on the map as a surf spot and for giving us reliable weather information. I check this site very often. Surf up!

Dimitris Pavlakis from GREECE writes about Kolympithra East (Tinos) surf break:
Kolymbithra is (was) a decent beach, facing NE. Its easterly end is crowded with umbrellas and local bathers, has two decent tavernas and an OK hotel for this neck of the woods (ain't the Hamptons). The surf is fine for toddlers to play and occasionally get carried away in the undertow, and OK for surfers, about 20% of the time -- if you don't mind e.coli, that is...
The water is, unfortunately, polluted. Raw sewage from nearby villages drains into an adjacent lagoon and seeps in the bay. Waste-water from nearby buildings also seeps in the bay through the sandy beach. An accidental sewage tank dump a couple of years ago resulted in confirmed dysentery cases. There is good open water circulation with northerly winds, and pollution becomes less of a problem.
A shack appeared this year with surf rentals and lessons. The legality of the shack is questioned, but it is located in the cleaner, less polluted, end of the bay. The operator is a nice and friendly person, but has alienated locals who used the spot as a swimming hole. A rag tag group of campers has also filled the area with visible human waste -- watch your step -- as there is no infrastructure, camping is not allowed, and campers trespass private properties, much to the annoyance of local owners.
Caveat emptor

A NOTE ABOUT SECRET SPOTS
In compiling this website, we have endeavoured to include data for the main
global surf breaks. If anyone feels we have accidentally exposed a secret
spot, let us know and if we agree that it is sensitive, we'll take it
