Gwadar West is a surf spot located in a coastal area known for its warm water and sandy beach breaks. The spot is exposed, making it fairly consistent with swell. Being in a bay, it can get hot, especially during the summer months. It's worth noting that the best setup in Gwadar, Ras Nuh, is off-limits since it’s situated near a naval base, so surfers have to make do with the options available at Gwadar West.

The waves at Gwadar West mainly come from the South and SouthWest, and they can handle swell sizes starting from 1 ft (0.3 meters). The beach produces both left and right breaks, which is pretty nice for surfers looking to mix it up. It works well with a variety of tide heights—low, mid, or high tide can all provide decent conditions. For the best surfing experience, aim for days when the wind is coming from the NorthEast.

While Gwadar West has its ups and downs, it's often seen as a solid choice for local surfers looking to catch some fun waves without the crowds. Just remember that the conditions can vary, so checking the surf report before heading out is always a good idea.
