Forthcoming Events
Our favourite start of season event is in Cornwall, based around Marazion and Gwithian. Adam is your host, he's currently enjoying much warmer weather in W Australia, but should be back a few weeks before Easter.

We are planning to go down to Westward Ho! for the August bank holiday. More info nearer the time.
Cornwall needs no introduction if you are a wavesailor. Gwithian is the favorite spot for keen wave-heads and can deliver some of the best down-the-line wave sailing in England. If you can get your kit down the goat track from the cliff that is.
If you get Gwithian or The Bluff on a good day you'll score some fantastic down-the-line wavesailing and have a big grin on your face!

Pagham is one of the better sideshore spots on the south coast as it faces SE which gives sideshore and kicks up some mellow waves in S-SSW-SW directions. Also one of the few south coast venues which is not bad in a NE-E, because the beach faces south-east. Best sailed mid tide on the push for waves.
There are three windsurfing venues on Hayling but only the seafront is a serious contender as a venue worth visiting regularly. The other venues are only suitable in emergency situations, when it is impossible to windsurf on the sea front and, believe me, these situations arise! OMWC events often coincide with the Hayling Windsurf Car Boot Fair, on the first Sunday of the month, now held in the large car park behind the big dipper in the funfair with the Carousel cafe adjacent serving excellent breakfasts (thanks Stan!).
Bigbury is like the rest of the south coast - changeable. At times there are great waves as you'll see in the mags. Other times it's basically bump and jump. The whole location is absolutely beautiful however.
We sail at two spots here. We usually windsurf in Portland Harbour but occasionally we go to Overcombe.
