Wight Surf History

October 12, 2025

The Wight Surf History website (wightsurfhistory.co.uk) is having a break whilst it looks for a new home.

After 15 years of documenting the surfing history of the Isle of Wight, the accumulated photos and stories have been archived. Hopefully they can one day be ressurected, in the meantime, any questions you can contact paul blackley here.
