Carve Surf Magazine UK is the definitive voice of British surfing, dedicated to documenting the waves, culture and community that shape surf life across the United Kingdom. Founded in 1994, Carve has spent decades capturing the energy of cold-water sessions, the drama of winter storm swells, the stories of pioneering surfers, and the evolving identity of surf culture along the rugged coastlines of Cornwall, Wales, Scotland and beyond.
Known for its striking photography, authentic storytelling and editorial depth, Carve combines the soul of print with the speed and reach of digital media. Every issue and online feature is built with the same purpose — to celebrate the surfers, shapers, filmmakers, photographers and adventurers who push boundaries in and out of the water.
Carve’s content spans breaking surf news, athlete profiles, gear testing, travel features, environmental stories, and detailed surf spot insights tailored to UK conditions. From icy Scottish barrels to warm-water escapes across Europe and further afield, the magazine curates journeys and experiences that inspire surfers of all styles and levels. Its gear reviews and cold-water equipment tests are widely trusted by British surfers navigating challenging climates and ever-changing conditions.
Beyond storytelling, Carve supports the wider surf community: spotlighting grassroots projects, elevating homegrown talent, and partnering with environmental organisations committed to protecting coastlines and marine ecosystems. With a strong blend of editorial expertise, industry knowledge and genuine passion for the sea, Carve continues to shape the narrative of modern British surfing.
Whether you're chasing your first wave, exploring new breaks, planning a surf trip, or keeping up with the latest UK swell cycles, Carve Surf Magazine UK is your companion, your reference point and your connection to the heart of UK surf culture.
