Location guide

Broad Haven South, located in the United Kingdom, presents an array of surfing conditions, each offering its unique challenges and rewards. Sweeping with a gentle grace along the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, it is a picturesque stretch of coastline perfect for surfers seeking a scenic and quiet retreat. At Broad Haven South, surfing conditions are highly dependent on certain factors such as the tide, wind, swell, and the weather of course. The beach sees a mix of groundswells and wind swells, with the best conditions usually occurring when the tide is around mid to high. The bay tends to produce better surf when there is a strong west to northwest swell. During these conditions, the waves can reach impressive sizes, appealing to more experienced surfers in search of a thrilling ride. The beach break both left and right providing versatility for surfers. Depending on the day, surfers might find themselves riding long, leisurely waves perfect for cruising and carving, or short, punchy walls great for practicing more advanced maneuvers like snaps and cutbacks. In terms of wind conditions, the site is somewhat exposed. Hence, it's preferable to have an offshore wind from the east. This wind creates the most ideal wave conditions, smoothing and holding up the wave face for a more rideable and enjoyable surfing experience. However, like any surf spot, Broad Haven South has its downfalls. Sometimes, due to its West-facing location, it can be affected by wind coming from the Atlantic, which can make the surf choppy and less than ideal. Broad Haven South, with its unique mix of thrilling and relaxing waves, is indeed a gem for surfers of varying skills and preferences on the Welsh coastline. But as always, checking specific surf forecasts before heading to the water is advised for a safe and enjoyable surfing experience.
