With its wide beach offering great waves during the range of tides, Gwithian is an ideal SUP location and it’s expect to attract SUP’ers of all abilities from across the UK.

COMPETITORS MUST PRE ENTER BY THE 11TH JUNE 08 TO GUARANTEE A PLACE. THIS ALLOWS FOR BETTER USE OF HEAT TIME DURING THE DAY. LIMITED BEACH ENTRY MAY BE AVAILABLE.
