Atmosphere
Hornsea is a lovelly sea side town with a very freindly atmosphere. I've had some brilliant sessions here with no one else out. When Scarborough is head high and busy you'll get a waist/chest high wave here with no one out. Also after surfing you Can get the best fish and chips in any of the great chippies dotted about the place.
