Cardiff Windsurfing

Windsurfing in Cardiff is best served by the beach at Cold Knapp Barry ,here you get access to good wind in the afternoon and sailing in a bay so if you do get into trouble it might be a long walk back but at least you shouldn't need a life guard. 'The Knapp' is tidal so you have to keep an eye on the bean and currents. Some great sailing there though, you will need a proper wetsuit, after all it is Britain.

Further down the coast is another great venue at Porthcawl, with a much bigger sailing area.

If you are beginning then best to start of on an inland lake, 30 minutes in the car will get you to Llandegvedd  you can hire a board here and there is rescue available.
