The 2025 Caravan and Motorhome Club English National Surfing Championships at Fistral Beach have been officially POSTPONED. Originally scheduled for 3rd – 5th October, the event will now take place on the backup dates of Saturday 25th – Monday 27th October, in the hope of securing better surf.
After a thorough evaluation of the forecast, including the tracking of ex-storm Humberto, it has been confirmed that the UK is set to be hit by 50mph+ gusting Westerly winds throughout the weekend. These extreme conditions mean the surf will not be safe or consistent enough to ensure a fair and high-quality contest.
Please know this decision was not made lightly, but postponing gives us the best chance to hold the championship in conditions worthy of its national status. We’re confident the new dates will deliver more favourable waves and create the perfect backdrop for an action-packed weekend of top-level surfing at Fistral Beach, Newquay.
Thank you all for your patience and support — we’re excited to welcome competitors and spectators back for what promises to be an unforgettable weekend on the sand and in the surf.
