About This Spot
Amroth is a small beach break located on the Carmarthenshire coast in Wales, facing south toward the Bristol Channel. The spot features a sandy beach backed by residential properties and a seafront promenade. The presence of groynes and rocky structures indicates a managed beach environment typical of Welsh coastal settlements. With average winds of only 9.3 knots and 24.8% reliability, conditions are inconsistent and marginal for kitesurfing. When wind is available from the east or west, it provides side-shore access. Small average wave heights of 0.91m suggest this spot works best during swell events or higher wind days. The shallow water and proximity to structures make this primarily a beginner-friendly location when conditions align, though the low wind reliability means consistent sessions are difficult to secure. The rough-chop water type indicates mixed swell and wind-generated conditions. Kiters should be aware of the crowded beach environment and plan sessions around favorable wind windows.
