A 5am start to make it out to the surf on the tidal race at the Bitches in South Wales.
This play spot is one of my favourite locations and gifts us some of the best standing waves that are a kyakers dream.
To get to the wave, we need to paddle from the put in to the top of the bay and ferry glide from the coastline accross to Ramsey Island where the waves form as tide rushes in over the rocks bewteen. The wave begins to work around 3 hours before high tide which can involve an early paddle out before the dawm breaks so be sure to bring a head tourch for the journey.
