Reviews
This place is superb. Fantastic long left walls when Croyde is blown out or not handling size. Needs a big swell to wrap around and high to mid tides. - Jaffa, Sydney
When it's on Lynmouth is a class wave, not for the faint hearted though... - Johno, Plymouth
Utterly awesome, if Fistral is double overhead and wind is from south to west, Lynmouth will break for 200 yards at low tide. Get it while you can if you can. - Dubus, Plymouth
