Long sandy beach with a large pebble breakwater which on high tide produces a fun backbounce. Facilities on the beach include camping and parking, garage , surf shop, bar and cafe. Can be quite crowded in the summer. A very safe beach and ideal for beginners.

Newgale rocks! - heya wannnasurfers! Ive been surfing for 2 years and Newgale is my usual spot to surf. I can't believe broad haven is on wannasurf, broad haven is closer to where i live but there arent any waves there!Rock on Newgale!!

Yeah... - It picks up most swells going and its always bigger and less crowded than whitesands. The paddle outs arn't that bad! I've never had a real problem with them, if it goes above 6 foot then it can give you a working though. Newgale is one average wave in st Brides bay. There are much better waves nearby, which don't close out as much!Anna x sounds interesting, think i've seen her around before too.

BackdoorCowboy - Gnarly waves breed gnarly surfers; so when you're paddling out at Newgale watch out for Lynch, Newgale's Hellman. If it's below 3 foot he'll be squat down, arms out charging in a straight line in the white water like a white stallion with a full ball bag. Respect him.
World Class waves as well, the left off ricket's head breaks all the way to the brother's grimm petrol station on it's day. Top 30.
