Lahinch - Cornish Left surf guide

Lahinch - Cornish Left is a surf spot located a bit south of the popular Left. It's known for its faster and hollower waves compared to its neighbor. The area is generally less crowded, and it’s easy to paddle out from between the Left and Cornish, making it accessible for many surfers looking to catch some waves without too much hassle.

This spot works best with a west swell, and it can handle swell sizes around 3ft (about 0.9 meters). You’ll find waves breaking over rock ledges, with both left and right waves available. It’s ideal for surfers at all levels, but especially for beginners who want to get the hang of it. The best winds come from the east, and it’s good to surf during low, mid, or high tides, giving you flexibility depending on the weather.

Make sure to watch out for the peak, as it can lead you toward Shit Creek, where some fun rides await. Since the area isn’t packed with surfers, you’ll likely get more wave time without feeling cramped. It’s a solid spot overall, especially if you’re looking to improve your skills.
