East Witterings
Edit SpotAbout
Only worth visiting if you live in South East England - not classic - conditions are generally onshore and mushy - but on the right day can be pretty good, however conditions are rarely perfect - and when they are its generally freezing and mid-winter...
Atmosphere:
When it's good (not very often) it can be pretty crowded, but the crowd is always friendly - as everyone is stoked to be getting a half decent wave!! Watch the dumping shorebreak - I'm sure it has the capability to break bones (and throw pebbles down your wetsuit!!)
Additional Info:
Try to avoid high tide as the beach dump can be very nasty and for anyone who is not familiar with this kind of set up; getting back is often harder than getting out.
Keep checking position as powerful side currents can drag you near dangerous groynes before you realise!!
