03 · Location

In context.

A mile-long shingle beach on the East Devon Jurassic Coast, backed by cliffs and a seafront promenade, with a river estuary at its eastern end. A sheltered beach break for windsurfing, sailing and occasional surf, it is inconsistent, working best in winter on south-southwest swells. Dangerous rips are a hazard near the river mouth. Powered vessels may only launch from the yacht club slipway. RNLI lifeguard cover is seasonal but details are unconfirmed.

Can 4Shor provide more accurate forecasts than my existing app?
