Porth is a beachbreak located on the coast, known for its relaxed vibe. It’s not the most popular spot among surfers, and you might find it a bit quiet. The beach itself has sand, making it a decent place for those looking to catch some waves in a chilled-out environment. It's easy to access, with parking and basic facilities nearby.

The surf here usually tends to be gutless, especially when the swell is smaller, getting as low as 1ft (about 0.3 meters). It works best with a west swell direction, and you might also see some action with south-west and north-west swells. The waves break to both the left and right, which can be nice for beginners. If you’re heading out, the best conditions appear during low to mid tide and with a south-east wind. So, it can be a good spot for learners when the conditions are right.

For beginners, Porth can be a suitable place to practice and gain confidence in the water. Since it's rarely surfed, you may have more room to play around without feeling crowded. Just keep an eye on the swell size and tide to make the most of your time here.
