The Cove in North East England is a fairly exposed reef break that has reasonably consistent surf. Winter and spring are the best times of year to visit. Offshore winds blow from the southwest. Tends to receive a mix of groundswells and windswells and the best swell direction is from the north northeast. No beach break here and there is also a left hand reef break.. Good surf at all stages of the tide. Watch out for rocks.
