The most well-known spot in the Porthcawl area because of its consistency and surprising quality on decent swells. It works pretty much up to high tide.

There is a rip here which pulls you towards the cliffs on the left-hand side, but the beach is fairly safe.

It's a beach break and pulls up onto the rocks near the shore as the tide moves in - so you need to be aware of these when paddling in.

Holds waves up to six to eight feet on good days, and, more often than not, has barrelling sections at low tide.
