Port of Ness surf guide

Port of Ness is a surf spot located on the northern coast, offering a protected pocket of sand that faces the mainland. The spot catches both NorthWest and NorthEast swells, which allows for some decent waves. The banks here are known to change quite a bit, so it’s good to keep an eye on the conditions. The southern end is known for producing a right-hand wave off the rocks, providing something for surfers looking for variety.

The surf at Port of Ness works best with swells ranging from 1ft to about 2.5m, making it suitable for intermediate surfers. The waves typically break over sand, creating both left and right wave options for riders. When the conditions are right—with a north-east swell and a west wind—you can find some fun sessions here. The spot is flexible, handling different tide heights whether you're there at low, mid, or high tide.

It’s worth noting that rips can get pretty strong at Port of Ness, so it’s important to keep an eye on them while you’re out. Always check the surf and wind conditions before heading out to make sure you’re set for a good session.
