Additional Surfing Infos |
| | Alderney is one of the smaller, less known Channel islands. Only 12 km from the French mainland, this rocky island is swept by some of the strongest tidal currents in the English channel/la Manche The northern end of the island has several small beaches, and Corblets is a sheltered, North facing horseshoe bay, which picks up swell on big days.

Overview |
| |
Atmosphere |
A small island community that is accessed by light aircraft, means this spot, like all others on the island, is never going to be overcrowded. The western end of the island is clawed at by powerful currents and is dominate by 100 metre high cliffs. The lower, more sheltered eastern end provides sheltered sandy beaches, which get surf on big storm swells. |
| |
General |
Usually a family beach, but if you happen to be around when a big swell is running, and you can find a board, check it out... |
