Located in East Anglia, Gorleston is a decent set-up with plenty of groynes to keep the sand in place making for some decent sections for manoeuvres. The waves here are easy to surf and break for up to 50 meters over a sand bottom.
What are the best surf conditions for Gorleston?
Gets good between waist high and double overhead. We recommend riding a longboard here when smaller and a shortboard as the size picks up. This break is suitable for all levels of surfer. The surf here is not consistent (2/10) and will generally be uncrowded (2/10). The best winds are from the Southwest. The best swells are from the East, North, Northeast, South, and Southeast. Works on a mid to high tide best.
We recommend wearing a 3/2 in the summer when water temperatures rise to 17 degrees. In the winter a 5/4 is best when water temperatures drop to 7 degrees. See the temperature chart below for more data on this.
