Bigbury is a popular surf spot located at the more sheltered end of the bay from Bantham. It's known for having smaller, fun waves, making it a decent choice for surfers looking for mellow sessions. The beach is sandy, and the area is generally chill, attracting both locals and visitors alike.

The surf at Bigbury can handle swell sizes from around 2ft to 6ft (about 0.6m to 1.8m), with predominant swells coming from the SouthWest. The waves break over sand, offering both right and left options. It's generally more suited for beginners and intermediates, especially at low to mid tides, but you can still find something rideable throughout the tide range. The best conditions are with a NorthEast wind, and you'll find that the waves offer fun, peeling rides that can be enjoyed on a variety of boards, including shortboards, fish, funboards, longboards, and even SUPs.

Access is easy with a big beachfront car park available. During the winter months from December to February, the spot tends to shine more, especially when there’s a bit more swell in the water. Despite its popularity, it still maintains a relaxed vibe, making it a good place to enjoy some time in the water.
