park car facing the beach. surf a short right towards the headland which is fast. or the left off the headland which is long and speedy
Overview
Atmosphere
There are plenty of secert spots up and down the coast near whitesands. but for safety whitesands has it all. beach lifegards in the summer and a quality little cafe in the car park.
better than devon/cornwall
Way less people in the summer with equally as good surf, i would say its worth an extra hour or two drive to get away from crowds

winter only!!!
whitesands is pretty good, but i would only advise not to go to whitesands in the summer over july to about early september. firstly the waves are absloute cr@p and the amount of people just standing in the water and getting in the way is pretty big. The only time whitesands really picks up any strength is over the winter. And considering it hasn't been great over the last few years, i think other spots in the south would be a better option.

I loved the waves. They were brilliant. I've never surfed as good as I did on that day.
