(United-Kingdom – North East England)

Surf-default-break-image
Name: Embleton
Type: beach
Reliability: fairly consistent
Best Swell: NE Offshore Wind: SW

Embleton in North East England is a fairly exposed beach break that has quite consistent surf. Winter and spring are the best times of year to visit. Works best in offshore winds from the southwest. Waves just as likely from local windswells as from distant groundswells and the best swell direction is from the northeast. Waves at the beach break both left and right. The quality of the surf isn't affected by the tide. When it's working here, it can get crowded.
