Barra, located in the Outer Hebrides, offers surfers a unique experience with its beautiful scenery and laid-back vibe. The spot is famous for the long stretch of west-facing beachbreak located just across from the island's beach airport. Besides this main spot, you can find a few more beaches located further south around Borgh, which are definitely worth checking out.

The surf here works best with a Northwest swell and can handle sizes around 2ft (0.6m). You can catch waves both left and right, making it suitable for surfers of all levels, especially beginners. While it is primarily a beach break, the area is versatile and can handle different swell directions such as Southwest and North. The best conditions are usually found with a Southeast wind and at tide heights ranging from low to high, allowing for a variety of surf experiences throughout the day.

Barra is a great spot for surfers looking to enjoy a chill session without the crowds. With its sandy bottom, it's a forgiving place to practice and improve your skills. Whether you're just starting out or looking for a fun, relaxing surf, Barra has something to offer.
