Summer

Tyson Greenaway

Whisper it, but I think summer may have arrived. The surf has been trundling through at a very respectable headhigh, the winds are offshore and even the weather is cooperating.
The usual signatures of summer can be clearly seen. There is a healthy layer of sand in the porch, some surf wax has been trodden into the carpet and my nose and neck are blistered wrecks. Even the surf school tortoise is looking spry and energetic in the balmy mid day sun.

Of course the clearest sign that summer is well and truly among us is the crowds. The local kids haven’t broken up from school yet but there are plenty of Scots around and the roads are filling up. The beautiful thing about Gwithian is if you time it right you can still get plenty of waves and a bit of solitude – a three mile beach can usually spread the people out nicely.
I managed a little surf up the coast today at Perran Sands. Now that place is super quiet – probably something to do with the shin busting 1 mile walk over sand dunes to get back to your car but hey ho.
Tomorrow I’m going to give Gwenvor down by Lands End a go before work. I’ll keep you posted.
