Constantine Bay

Constantine Bay is a sandy beach break situated on the north coast of Cornwall, UK, facing west into the Atlantic Ocean. The bay is sheltered by rocky headlands on both sides, creating a moderately protected environment despite direct ocean exposure. The beach features golden sand with scattered rock outcrops and reefs, particularly toward the northern end. Conditions are best with north winds providing reliable side-shore flow parallel to the beach. Average wind speeds of 11.6 knots and wave heights around 1.57m indicate consistent but modest conditions typical of the Cornish coast. The 41% wind reliability reflects Atlantic weather patterns. This spot suits intermediate riders comfortable with sandy launch areas and variable bottom contours. Key considerations include tide-dependent water depth changes, potential for strong currents near headlands, and crowding during holiday periods. The residential area limits designated kite zones. Winter months typically offer stronger, more consistent wind and swell.
