COME ON IN… • Born in North Cornwall and a surfer since the age of 12, Rachel Murphy is on a mission to encourage other women into the sea. To do this she set up the Women + Waves club (seen here), which originally met at Fistral Beach every week in the summer to provide a safe, supportive environment for women to surf together. Now, she runs all-female surf lessons, surf weekends and holidays and has created a welcoming surf community for women. The physical benefits are self-evident but Rachel believes surfing has a positive mental effect, too. ‘There really isn’t a feeling like it,’ she insists. ‘Every surf you have will be different. But you always come out feeling glad to have got in.’ (womenandwavessociety.com).
