Hey, can anybody recommend a good beach in South Wales for this Sat/Sun for boarding/buggying? Looking for nice hard sand and daylight low tides (funnily enough). And if you can supply the perfect wind it would be appreciated ;)

 

Coming with missus so looking to stay near beach, but in or close to a nice town with hotels and a few pubs.

 

Was thinking of going to the Ho! but thought we may try South Wales instead... Or Goodwood FOS but that didn't go down well!

 

Sorry for my ignorance on your area but hope you don't mind helping out with some advice.

 

Cheers :)

Thanks, looks like the trip's off now though :(

 

I'll keep Llangennith in mind for next time. Do you need to be a member of a club to fly there? Just for future reference...

 

No - no membership required for Llangennith. Park in Hill End, and when on the beach turn right and walk until you cross the stream. Set up and play ;)

 

Pembrey and Pendine are rock hard sand and loooong and wide - but you do need membership. Carmarthenshire Land Sailing Club - Carmarthenshire Land Sailing Club

 

Other than that, Aberavon is another good kiting beach - but you must set up and fly West of the promenade - no flying in front of the prom at all.

Come to Life's a Beach - 10th - 12th September. Camping in the park, chilled out and relaxed style event - stuff going on if you want to get involved, but plenty of space to just go ride if you don't. £30 for the weekend, including camping, and that includes half year membership (expires end 2010) so if you want to visit before or after the event this year, you can. You can even bring the mrs - if she doesn't kite, it'll only cost you an extra tenner :)

Sounds interesting, might give it a go. She flies my Flows and her Beamer 1.8, but no wheels... and are kids welcome?

Yup - kids of any age are welcome :)

 

There's loads to do at the Park as well - dry ski slope, toboggan run, 'Go Ape', an equestrian centre and other stuff - as well as a huge beach.
