Oxwich Bay Gallery

Oxwich Bay is set in beautiful surroundings and is perfect for the learner windsurfer but offers good fun jumping and freestyle in directions not suited to any other beaches in the Gower, which sets it as a strong option when not much else is going on.

It's shallow shelving beach and generally calm waters due to sheltering from the vast headland upwind in a SW make it one of the better spots on the Gower to learn. As such there is a windsurfing school present here as well.

On big winter swells there is a even a secret spot down far downwind.

Considerations

None.
