Be the first to review Johnshaven! Login to leave a review.

Located on Scotland's East Coast, Johnshaven is a reef break that delivers left and right waves when the south swell and northwest winds align. The water is frigid, requiring a wetsuit, and the spot is rarely crowded due to its inconsistent surf. Surfers must navigate rocks and strong rips, making it best suited for experienced riders. While summer often brings flat conditions, windswells can create exciting sessions when the right elements combine.
