Guernsey - T'otherside

Requiring a decent sized swell to start working T'otherside is a long fun right-hander that breaks over a group of rocks to the south of the reef. More a slow longboarding wave when small, T'other can really come into it's own in big winter swells producing good workable long walls all the way to the beach.



Guernsey - Suckers

You can count on your hands the people that have surfed this wave over the years.Only works 2hrs ethier side of spring lowtides.You can see the wave from the main carpark @perelle .If the wave isn't breaking outside the rock that is by the peak then don't bother with the paddle.Only surf it when you can see a good swell is running.The wave comes in as a hollow peak which barrels on take of past a big rock and then fattens out .Best to surf it yourself.Can handle a sw wind as it faces n.



Guernsey - Portinfer

The most consistant beach break on Guernsey, portifer is usually 2ft bigger than vazon. Best of the down tide, Portinfer start breaking a mid-tide producing rights and lefts in the middle of the bay. The lower the tide the more hollow and powerful the wave becomes, unfortunately it also has more of a tendancy to close out.



Guernsey - Perelle Right

Breaking 500m out to sea off the islet of Dom Hue all the breaks at Perelle suffer from strong winds. Best conditions are a light SE/E wind and a small/medium size groundswell. Anything up to 5-6ft is manageable with a fairly steep takeoff next to a group of rocks, followed by a fast longish wall into the shallows. When over 6ft+ it can become heavy and dangerous, be warned getting caught on the inside on a big day can be a nasty experience! Also watch for the shallow rocks just below the surface on the inside section as the tide drops.



Guernsey - Suck Reef

Suck reef is a mid-high tide peak that breaks over an outside reef in the centre of vazon bay. Works only during large winter swells when t'otherside starts to hit the 5-6ft mark. Generally recognised as a left which offers a fast ledgy take-off followed by a decent walling section before dropping off as the reef deepens on the inside. The more rarely surfed right offers a shallow & steep take-off followed by a good initial wall followed by a flatter second section. Generally breaks up to about 8ft when the left joins up with the rights of t'otherside to close-out the middle of the bay, at this size the right also closes-out most of the way to centres reef.



Guernsey - Perelle Left

Access same at right, the left breaks on the other side of a rocky outcrop from the right, the wave offers a ledgy takeoff followed by a long fun wall. Mellower and fatter then the right, it does however require a smaller swell to start breaking and works in a wider range of tides. As with the right and the peak it can hold large waves but can become heavy in big conditions.



Guernsey - Fort Le Marchant

This spot generally only works during large winter storms that produce enough swell to rap into the sheltered northerly facing bay (rarely works on large ground-swells). The bonus of the situation is that the predominate SW winds produced by these storms means that this place is generally offshore when breaking. In these conditions head down here at mid-tide on a falling tide. Access into the water is through a small gully below the carpark, the paddle out is easy as a rip runs parallel to the point straight through the take-off zone. The waves only starts to break at around the 5ft mark alongside a group of rocks that become dry as the tide drops. Take-off can be hairy as the wave jacks-up surprising quickly, if you are not committed when big you will very much regret it!! The initial section consists of a powerful and hollow wall that allows the opportunity for a couple of decent moves before the waves then starts to slow and flatten out as it breaks further out into the channel. It's an idea to keep a constant eye on the outside as sets are often masked by the rocks around the headland and can sneak in quickly, you do not want to be on the inside when a big set rolls in!! Generally best for a couple of hours after mid-tide, the wave becomes inconsistant and shallow on the inside at low tide.



Guernsey - L'Ancresse Pembroke

Just park in the main car-parks, they both overlook the whole stretch of beach, the two spots are seperated by rock outlets.



Guernsey - Perelle Big Peak

Guernsey's big wave spot is located across a deep water channel from the Islet of Dom Hue. Rarely surfed (you have to walk pass the right/left to get out there), this spot picks up any swell going but as with the other breaks in this area it is easily blown out. Starts breaking properly at about 4/5ft and has been known to hold 10ft+. Generally consists of a relatively short right-hand bowl, this wave is not to be taken lightly, the shifting peak can see you easily getting caught in the impact zone by a wide set breaking further towards the channel.



Alderney - Corblets Bay

Alderney is one of the smaller, less known Channel islands. Only 12 km from the French mainland, this rocky island is swept by some of the strongest tidal currents in the English channel/la Manche The northern end of the island has several small beaches, and Corblets is a sheltered, North facing horseshoe bay, which picks up swell on big days.

Guernsey - Suck Reef

Suck reef is a mid-high tide peak that breaks over an outside reef in the centre of vazon bay. Works only during large winter swells when t'otherside starts to hit the 5-6ft mark. Generally recognised as a left which offers a fast ledgy take-off followed by a decent walling section before dropping off as the reef deepens on the inside. The more rarely surfed right offers a shallow & steep take-off followed by a good initial wall followed by a flatter second section. Generally breaks up to about 8ft when the left joins up with the rights of t'otherside to close-out the middle of the bay, at this size the right also closes-out most of the way to centres reef.



Guernsey - Perelle Left

Access same at right, the left breaks on the other side of a rocky outcrop from the right, the wave offers a ledgy takeoff followed by a long fun wall. Mellower and fatter then the right, it does however require a smaller swell to start breaking and works in a wider range of tides. As with the right and the peak it can hold large waves but can become heavy in big conditions.



Guernsey - Fort Le Marchant

This spot generally only works during large winter storms that produce enough swell to rap into the sheltered northerly facing bay (rarely works on large ground-swells). The bonus of the situation is that the predominate SW winds produced by these storms means that this place is generally offshore when breaking. In these conditions head down here at mid-tide on a falling tide. Access into the water is through a small gully below the carpark, the paddle out is easy as a rip runs parallel to the point straight through the take-off zone. The waves only starts to break at around the 5ft mark alongside a group of rocks that become dry as the tide drops. Take-off can be hairy as the wave jacks-up surprising quickly, if you are not committed when big you will very much regret it!! The initial section consists of a powerful and hollow wall that allows the opportunity for a couple of decent moves before the waves then starts to slow and flatten out as it breaks further out into the channel. It's an idea to keep a constant eye on the outside as sets are often masked by the rocks around the headland and can sneak in quickly, you do not want to be on the inside when a big set rolls in!! Generally best for a couple of hours after mid-tide, the wave becomes inconsistant and shallow on the inside at low tide.



Guernsey - L'Ancresse Pembroke

Just park in the main car-parks, they both overlook the whole stretch of beach, the two spots are seperated by rock outlets.



Guernsey - Perelle Big Peak

Guernsey's big wave spot is located across a deep water channel from the Islet of Dom Hue. Rarely surfed (you have to walk pass the right/left to get out there), this spot picks up any swell going but as with the other breaks in this area it is easily blown out. Starts breaking properly at about 4/5ft and has been known to hold 10ft+. Generally consists of a relatively short right-hand bowl, this wave is not to be taken lightly, the shifting peak can see you easily getting caught in the impact zone by a wide set breaking further towards the channel.



Alderney - Corblets Bay

Alderney is one of the smaller, less known Channel islands. Only 12 km from the French mainland, this rocky island is swept by some of the strongest tidal currents in the English channel/la Manche The northern end of the island has several small beaches, and Corblets is a sheltered, North facing horseshoe bay, which picks up swell on big days.
