There's been a big Atlantic swell for quite a long time, but the

Photo from yesterday afternoon at Sennen (12-15' or so), and the
much messier onshore but still fairly surfy conditions at
Porthleven this morning.

Yesterdays particularly big & powerful swell has now hit Nazare.
Worth watching the webcam for a big set, the biggest waves are

It's also been causing a bit of havoc in the Canary Islands.

Wow, that was impressive. There's a lot of power in the Atlantic at
the moment.

There was supposed to be a big wave on the Cribbar reef (Newquay)
today, but I don't think there has been (I may yet be proved wrong).
The tides are all wrong, (low water Spring tide is best) and there's
been too much wind to let it develop.
