Baleshare North Uist

Baleshare is a beach break located on the west coast of North Uist in Scotland's Outer Hebrides. The spot faces west toward the Atlantic Ocean with direct exposure to Atlantic swells and weather systems. The beach is narrow with significant tidal range, backed by agricultural fields. Winds approaching from the north (0°) provide optimal side-shore conditions parallel to the coastline. The spot experiences moderate wave heights averaging 1.46m with rough water conditions typical of exposed northern Scottish coasts. Wind reliability is moderate at 46.6%, with consistent Atlantic influence. The area is relatively undeveloped with minimal infrastructure. This spot suits intermediate kiters comfortable with exposed Atlantic conditions, variable wind, and cooler water temperatures averaging 9.8°C. Key considerations include strong tidal flows, limited safe zones due to shallow areas and rocky features, and the commitment required to access remote Hebridean locations. Spring tides significantly affect usable area and water behavior.
