Europe Surfing Info and Details
The best surf in Europe is generated from Autumn and Winter low pressure systems track across the far north. The Gulf Stream helps keep water temperatures up in the northern countries like the UK making a winter surf more comfortable (but still flamin' cold!).
The best waves are found on the Atlantic Coasts but there are still decent swells and breaks in the North Sea and also, but not as regularly, in the Mediterranean. As surfing grows more popular it is getting increasingly hard to find empty spots but all in all things are pretty mellow in the water if you behave yourself.
