About this Spot

Boobies is a surf spot located in Cornwall, United Kingdom. This surf location features an a-frame wave direction and a sandy bottom, making it accessible for surfers of all skill levels. The wave length ranges from 50 to 150 meters, and the surf quality is generally considered normal. There are typically few surfers present, allowing for a more relaxed surfing experience. The spot has three main peaks: one in the middle, one to the left off Constantine Point, and one on the right near the rocks. The middle peak tends to perform best at mid tide, while the left and right peaks can vary in quality depending on conditions. At high tide, the beach is not accessible. When the swell is right, The Slab, a hollow and sucky right-hand reef, becomes a popular location for skilled surfers, especially at low tide off the cliffs to the north. It is important to note that when conditions are right, the area can become very crowded with talented locals. The vibe in the water is generally friendly, but can become tense during the summer months when the spot attracts more surfers. As conditions can vary greatly, it is advisable to assess your skill level against the difficulty of the waves before entering the water. The surf spot is located just north of Constantine Beach, and at low tide, the beaches join together. It is essential to check surf etiquette when surfing crowded spots and respect the locals. For those looking to plan their visit, it is recommended to check surf forecasts, reports, and webcams to gauge the best times to surf. The surrounding area includes other notable surf spots such as Constantine Reef, Mother Ivy’s, Treyarnon, and Harlyn, providing various options for surfers. Parking facilities are generally available near the beach, but it is advisable to arrive early during peak times to secure a spot. Respect the locals.
