East Anglia Surf Breaks
East Anglia is more know for it's beach side resorts rather than it's swell, although on its day can be quite fun. In general this part of coast is polluted and lacks any swell. East Runton is the more favorable of all the breaks with a sand and shingle bottom. The break is divided into three peaks: a long right, a left and a slow right with the third being a left breaking over some reef. All work best on a N swell and S wind. There's a pay and display car park up on the cliffs. For any beaches to have a rideable wave a large N swell is needed but even then it's unlikely it'll make it all the way down.
