Newgale Sands

Newgale Sands is a beach break located on the Pembrokeshire coast in southwest Wales, facing west toward the Celtic Sea. The spot features an extensive sandy beach backed by a coastal road, with notable rocky outcrops and dark rock formations visible in the nearshore zone. The beach receives direct Atlantic swell exposure, creating consistent wave formation, though water conditions typically display rough chop rather than clean waves. Wind reliability is moderate at 29.4%, with an average of 10 knots, suggesting that side-shore conditions from the north provide optimal kitesurfing windows. The rough-chop water type indicates mixed swell and wind-generated conditions. This spot suits intermediate kiters who can manage shallow rocky areas and variable conditions. Visibility of the coastline road and parking suggests moderate accessibility. Key considerations include timing around the rocky hazards near the shore, being aware of water depth variations, and monitoring tidal changes that may affect the usable beach width and current patterns.
