Gwithian is a top, if not the top wave sailing spot in the UK. Popoular for Surfing, Windsurfing and Kitesurfing. The most common sailed winds are from the South and West. Combined with swell these can give amazing port tack conditions.

Gwithian seems to pick up a lot more swell than the more sheltered beaches to the south of the Bay. In a Southerly, Gwithian will give you a classic riding day, from knee to mast high
