Llangennith

Updated Sun 11 Oct, 19:36

The north end of Rhossili Bay, with loosely defined banks that can lack punch, so it suits newer surfers on a longboard or mid-length. Three Peaks, by Burry Holms at the far north end, has more size and shape. It works through the tides, best around mid, and gets hollower at low. Big swells close out, and the paddle out is hard with little channel. The most exposed beach on Gower. An easterly is offshore.
