Llantwit Major surf guide

Llantwit Major is a surf spot located on the stunning Welsh coastline. It's known for its beautiful scenery and the variety of surf conditions it offers. The area features a large triangular reef that can deliver different waves depending on the tide. This spot attracts both local surfers and visitors looking for a decent session in the water. Parking is available near the beach, making it easy to grab your gear and hit the waves.

The surf here is quite interesting, especially at low to mid tide. The preferred swell directions are from the southwest and west, and it handles swell sizes of around 3 feet (about 0.9 meters). When the conditions are right, you'll find long, walling right-hand waves that break over an uneven reef and sand. As the tide pushes over the ledge, you can also catch some split peaks. A northeast wind is ideal for shaping up the waves, but it’s good to keep an eye on local rips which can pop up now and then.

Surfers should be mindful of the rocky areas around the reef, as well as the local crowd—it's best to respect the locals and their waves. Overall, Llantwit Major can be a fun spot for surfers of all levels, especially when you time your visit with the right tide and swell conditions.
