Format:Paperback
This book is a handy one to have if you're a reasonably well experienced surfer but do not buy this if you are a beginner, many of the spots listed are sketchy at best and should only be attempted by more experienced surfers. On the other hand, if you know what youre doing this book gives you a chance to find less crowded waves. Particularly if you surf in North Wales. It lists many more spots than the Stormrider guide however these tend to be the spots that rarely work. Im not sure if the rumor is true or not but i have been told that the author got a few beatings for giving away what were once secret spots (if there is such a thing).

Format:Paperback
This book should piss off a few locals , as it gives great detail about known spots and indicates 'secret spots.' A must for anyone without a surf break outside their door or anyone who wants to explore

This book shows where to surf and the surf shops to go to, I recommend this book to any surfer, Begginer or Pro.

Comprehensive but workmanlike guide to UK breaks. Well written, with a typically laid back style. However it probably suffers a little for the sake of completeness, containing... Read more
