Philorth is a great place for many water-sports such as wind surfing. The best period for visiting this place is between April and October, like most places in the northeast of Aberdeenshire.
Geographical conditions here vary, the spot is mostly friendly for beginners and also adventurous enough for the experienced ones. The beach is formed mostly by a thick layer of sand and due to its length, you will easily find your spot for a great wind surfing experience. Very close to Fraserburgh, there are many amusement places close to the beach, places to stay and eat.
Friendly enough for every visitor, Philorth is weather-wise a place with constant wind blow. What is more, you may find good swell size from any wind direction. However, some surfers say that the south and southeasterly will guarantee perfect wind surf running that in a good day can reach the speed of up to 20 knots. Only hazard is that although the place is sandy, you should be aware of strong undercurrents.

The huge benefit of stand up paddle surfing over regular surfing is that much smaller less steep waves are catchable before they break, and as the boards are much more stable it is easier to pick up. Additionally, as you start in a standing position, there is no popping up onto the SUP, while the paddle can be used for extra stability and drive on the wave.
Camber offers some for stand up paddle surfing with both small and big waves.
Course Duration: 2 hours
The first two days of this course follow the same outline as the 1 and 2 day courses (above) and it then offers another full day on the board to really master the board start and go on to controlled edging, upwind riding and turns.
