(Scotland – East Coast, UK)
| Name: | North Berwick |
|---|---|
| Type: | reef |
| Reliability: | fairly consistent |
| Best Swell: NNE | Offshore Wind: S |
North Berwick on the East Coast is a reasonably exposed reef break that has reasonably consistent surf. Winter and spring are the optimum times of year to visit. Works best in offshore winds from the south. Tends to receive a mix of groundswells and windswells and the ideal swell direction is from the north northeast. There is no beach break and there is also a left hand reef break.. Even when there are waves, it's not likley to be crowded. Take care of the strong rips here.
