 Additional Information

Phingask is a notoriously fickle spot that can be either ultra consistent or just won't work at all. When it's on the place is a swell magnet, turning the smallest of swells into rideable waves. The break is a sand/rock mix and the wave quality depends on the amount of sand. The wave is a right hander although there is a left at the other side of the point that is more rocky. When it's on the waves are very speedy, fun rights that pack a bit of punch.

Atmosphere

Phigask can get crowded when it's on, as it can often be the only place around with swell. As with all the breaks around Fraserburgh respect the locals and you'll be fine.
