Additional Surfing Infos
 No matter how excited you are about the swell - drive slowly through the village - people live here, and no wave is worth a kids life.
  Overview
  Atmosphere Some good local surfers, there may be alot of people in the water but hardly any catching waves when its overhead.
  General It Rocks ! world class on its day but isn't everywhere. Be careful of the shallow spot which almost sucks dry at lo-tide (the waa-boomf section)

re: pics
I remember in a surf shop in Southborne (forgot its name) there was a pic of the bench going off, it was a great picture too, all framed and everything. It is probably gone now though.

Kimmeridge
I surfed here alone in 1979 & 1980 when I worked on the 'Witch-Farm' oil-wells site. It was clean & radical! But really f.....g 'monkeys'! Please take note about driving thro` the village real slow, respecting the village folk & one of mother-nature`s most beautiful parts of southern England!
