A surfer has defended criticism after making a 600-mile round trip to Cornwall during lockdown to catch Britain's biggest wave – dubbed the 'Widow-Maker'.
Jeff Scott drove 300 miles from his home in Sussex and back again to surf the infamous Cribbar wave Newquay.
But his actions have been met with widespread criticism from locals who described his actions as "disgusting" while only essential travel was allowed during lockdown.
Jeff said he was "sorry" for any upset but justified his actions as he described it as an "unmissable wave."
Legendary surf spot the Cribbar breaks only when the swell, wind and tide conditions are right.
