Thurso East
As Scotland’s surf capital, Thurso is a pilgrimage site for serious wave riders. This remote tiny town, which has its roots in agriculture and a nuclear power plant, happens to take the crown for the best right-hand breaking wave in Europe. Its climatic disposition ensures epic uncrowded cold-water waves set to ignite a fire within all thrill seekers. Waves are known to range from 2 to 15 feet, making the Baltic temperatures totally worth it.
