About the spot

The low-tide lagoons off Shoebury Common are an established freestyle and freeride area. Sandbanks shelter parts of the water, but many sections remain extremely shallow.

A suitable session depends on both wind and available beach space. Check where you will land later and how the tide will change during the session.
