South Devon Surf Forecast map for predicting the best wave and wind conditions across the region. 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 South Devon Surf map or show live wind and wave conditions as reported from wavebuoys and local weather stations. Surf breaks shown along the South Devon coastline are also listed below.

A mixture of sandy and reef breaks with plenty of rivermouths to throw in the equation. If you're up for getting up early and hitting the road you'll find an offshore wave somewhere on a southerly swell. From east to west on the south coast theer are a mixture of beginner to advanced waves. Plenty of places to eat, sleep and road networks are great. One of the more popular places to surf in the UK. Remember to respect the local surfers as things can get a bit crowded. You'll find waves through out and winter where waves in summer are few and far between.
