Golden Sand Beach - Huangdao surf guide

Golden Sand Beach, located in Huangdao, is easily accessible via a ferry that crosses the harbour mouth from Qingdao. Positioned on the main coast road, this beach is known primarily for its beginner-friendly surf. While it may not be the most thrilling surf destination, it offers a decent spot for those looking to catch some small waves.

This beachbreak works best with a pushing tide, giving it a bit more power. It's most consistent with swells coming from the NorthEast and SouthEast, with the ideal swell size ranging around 1ft (0.3 meters). Surfers can expect both left and right-breaking waves, which are suitable for beginners wanting to practice. The best time to surf here is during low, mid, and high tide, especially when the wind is coming from the West.

The surf here is more consistent than some other spots in the area, making it a reliable choice when the Yellow Sea is in the right mood. During winter, conditions are best, even if the water gets quite chilly, dropping to around 4ยบC. Overall, Golden Sand Beach provides a decent place for novice surfers to get their feet wet without too much hassle.
