Surfing in Lincolnshire??

Hi all!

Just got back from Newqyay... gonna do a write up later.

But first.........

My parents want to move to Lincolnshire big time, they so hooked! I've never been and not a clue what its like up there but I beg them to try move in cornwall prefeb near Newquay .
But they state its too expensive, i tried searching the web but found no luck hoping maybe just maybe their could be some surf in
Lincolnshire.


Anyone know if there is and where abouts?

Any sites or details.

Cheers

Waz

Where abouts in Lincolnshire? I live right next door in Derbyshire! The best surfing spot is Crayton bay just above skeg in Yorkshire! I live about 2hours away so It will easily be under an hour for you

checkout - http://www.caytonbaysurfshop.co.uk/gallery.htm

for surf conditions!

Cayton bay is in Scarborough, and I.ve tried it once ot twice. If you go another few miles up the coast to Northe bay, you can sometimes find some good waves ther. Maybe I'll see you sumtime.

good luck

I'm from Belper, 'bout 20mins from the city center (no traffic).
Yeah the move was cool, I'm studying at uni now so it's not a full-on 'Ditch the Midlands' effort, but still it's nice to be able to spend 10mins getting to the surf rather than 4 hours.
