Tiruchendur surf guide

Tiruchendur is a coastal town known for its temple, located in Tamil Nadu, India. While it's primarily a pilgrimage spot, it offers surfers some decent waves, especially just a short walk away from the temple. It's not the most crowded surf spot, so you'll often find yourself with plenty of space to ride the waves.

This spot works best with swells coming from the South or SouthWest, and it handles swell sizes of around 2ft (0.6 meters). The waves break over boulders and sand, creating both reef and beach break options. You'll find some left and right waves to play on, making it ideal for intermediate surfers looking to get some practice. The best wind is normally from the Northwest, and it works well at low, mid, and high tides, offering flexibility for your surf sessions.

It's worth noting that the surf can be a bit inconsistent, so keep an eye on the forecast to catch the best conditions. When it’s on, Tiruchendur can offer a fun day on the water, and you'll enjoy the blend of both local culture and surfing.
