Surfing on the Lincolnshire Coast

When thinking about surfing we think of far flung exotic beaches, not necessarily the Lincolnshire Coast.

According to the Lincolnshire Surf Club it's a growing sport with more surfers being seen in Lincolnshire.

The Lincolnshire Surf Club was established in 2006 to bring together the growing band of surf enthusiasts enjoying the Lincolnshire beaches.

These include traditional stand up surfers but also body boarders along with kite and wind surfers.

Matt Strathern from the Lincolnshire Surf Club said: "The club's primary function is to bring together like minded individuals. Lincolnshire and the North Sea isn't readily associated with surfing but with regular Northerly groundswells and prevailing SW offshore winds the conditions here can be good."
