Surfers ride the first 5-star Severn Bore of the year in the Gloucestershire village of Minsterworth this morning (March 22). The Severn Bore natural phenomena is a large surge wave that can be seen in the estuary of the River Severn, where the tidal range is the second-highest in the world. Surfers and kayakers gather each year to get the chance to ride on these unusual wave patterns caused by a rise in the tide. @Newsflare #severnbore #minsterworth #gloucestershire #gloucester #wave #surfing |

Our first river in our 60 seconds on series in the Severn. The UK's longest river at 220miles long. Have you crossed the Prince of Wales bridge? Or visited the famous Ironbridge? Or surfed the Severn Bore?! With only a handful of locks, all run by lock keepers, it may be a tempting boating trip. But the unpredictable tidal levels are a challenge.
