Caswell Beach & Rhossili Bay offer safe rolling waves unlike Padang Padang!

The heading above may sound sense to most of us, but the reason for this post is the following paragraph sent to me from a fellow surf traveller > "...I liked your post on Caswell being one of the best places to learn to surf on your blog. I met an English girl in Bali whose Australian boyfriend had taken her out for her first surfing lesson at Padang Padang. She was covered in reef cuts and was selling her brand new board...'

Above is a picture taken at Rhossili Bay, Gower as you can see a surfer is just about to head back out to the waist high peeling waves that are breaking safely on to the golden sand. Unlike Padang Padang which is a heavy Indo reef break ideal for advanced surfers only! Pics of > Padang Padang

Anyway, if you fancy surfing or getting your partner into surfing forget paddling out at Padang Padang come to Gower and try Caswell Bay or Rhossili Beach you know it makes sense > Gower surfing school

Back on glorious Gower, no rock falls or landslides just gently rolling waves ideal for learning in

We went for a walk around the Gower coastal path yesterday, the sun was shining and a small ground swell rolling gently on to Caswell Beach, Swansea.

Caswell and Rhossili Bays are simply the best places to learn in Europe and possibly the world due to the soft nature of the waves and the beach environment being so safe. I have spent the last two months travelling around the surfing world and looking at various surf spots that people learn at and must say, I am hard pushed to compare any to the above for your first surf lesson and next step surf session.

Put it quite simply, learn to swim in the shallow end before working your way to the deeper water! (Which could be one of our surf trips to Portugal in the winter of 2010)

A strange September for Gower Surfing, let us hope for more waves in October

We had plenty of sun and offshore winds in Sept 09 and I guess after 10 weeks of non stop waves and poor weather throughout the so called 'summer' then the country was due some sun! 

However, the swells died down, but all though not as consistent there was a couple of days that produced really good waves.. who said quality over quantity?  Picture below is of a Swansea student surfing a left hander at Caswell Beach, near Mumbles in September 09 >

 

The good news is that we have  stormy waves today and looks like another blast of swell mid week, so perhaps the long awaited winter storms will start winding themselves up and send us  WAVES...

Have a good weekend,  I am sorry for slow down in blog posts.. it is just that September surf wise was really pants !!

Caswell Beach was perfect for Swansea Students this morning (24/09/09)

We had perfect waves this morning at Caswell Beach, Swansea. With 60 plus students from Swansea Met University making the most of them.

There was some classic wipe outs, great first time efforts and even a guy that managed to get his foot stuck in his wetsuit  arm whilst getting changed !

All the students had a great time and I am sure were pretty stoked that the faculty team organised this for them.
