Are there any problems with using this beach for a spot of static flying, jumping and scudding etc...? I haven't visited Llansteffan in many years so i don't know if any rules have been added in regard to what we can use on the beach. Iv bought myself a new toy for Christmas and as the winds are supposed to be significantly lighter on Boxing day id like to go out to play

Just wondering if anyone's about this weekend? I'm trying to get out Sunday as the wind looks pretty good and the sky looks like it may (touch wood) be clear. Gotta test out the new landboard so you'll be guaranteed a laugh at me repeatedly stacking it! Not sure where though, aberavon I think is gonna have ENE winds, is that good or bad? Ha ha!

I would like to take the family on a road trip in Wales for about 10 days in April. Can you guys reccommend some nice places to go, both for kite buggying and walking in the mountains? I've been up to the Gower and know about Pembrey and Pendyne, but I don't know anything about some of the other interesting beaches or places to go. And I don't know anything about the mountains and the wife is demanding that we spend half our time there, trying to force our small kids to hike. We'll be going with 2 kids (4 and 7 years old) so any child friendly places or destinations would be great as well. Anybody know any nice campsites? We aren't natives and know nothi…

I've been trying to make sense of all the threads for beaches on the Gower but am getting confused. Can anyone give me a list of beaches where kiting is allowed and where kiting is banned? I'm planning on going rock climbing at three cliffs bay and thought I could get a bit of kiting done too.
