🏄 Watergate Bay Surf Guide
Watergate Bay is a wide, open Atlantic-facing beach just north of Newquay. It picks up plenty of swell and can offer long, fun walls on cleaner days, making it popular with surfers, bodyboarders and beach lovers.
On smaller days it can be friendly and fun for foamies and longboards, but when the swell and wind build, Watergate can quickly become powerful, rippy and challenging. Always check tide movement, wind direction and lifeguard advice before heading in.
