For surfers, the map shows the most powerful swell tracking across near-shore open water and not the peak waves experienced by boats out at sea. Move your mouse over the ocean swell symbols or the surf breaks on the coastline to see a more detailed surf forecast including wave period and wind conditions. The forecast updates every 6 hours and most live weather reports update every hour. You can animate the North East England Surf map or show live wind and wave conditions as reported from wavebuoys and local weather stations.

North East England is quickly becoming of the most sort after destinations in the UK to surf. With Arctic generated N ground swells storming down the coast mixed with SW and W winds creating some fierce surfing conditions when mixed with the cold north sea waters. A great road network means more and more surfers are venturing north rather than heading south to the more common and well known destinations. Most beaches also have great access with plenty of facilities locally up and down the coast. Tyneside and Middlesborough are quite heavily polluted areas where further north in Northumbria things are quite the opposite. Tyne mouth is the center of surfing in Tyneside.
