Wisemans is located in the small village of Sandhaven two miles west of Fraserburgh. The wave lies immediately to the left of the harbour. Impossible to miss if it's working- just look for the spit!!

 Additional Information

Wisemans is an exceptionally heavy lefthander and should be tackled only by experienced surfers. The ability to know when and when not to go on a wave is vital as many of the waves bottom out. If you hook a good one you're in for a Pipe-like barrel. Stuff it up and you're in for a kicking!!. Crowds are never a problem- in fact the biggest problem is getting someone to surf the place with you.
