The surf is big and blown out in most places close to Cardiff, Porthcawl and Swansea, the only option will be to try and shelter, the wind is irregular heading from the North so shall be cold but maybe offshore in some regions so could get some swell and surf in areas such as Coney Beach Porthcawl, Langland Swansea, Caswell in Swansea.
We are heading up the mountain on Saturday with a group staying for an activity weekend in Cardiff, hopefully we shall be Canyoning but this will depend on the rainfall on Friday night and Saturday. Cameras will be ready to take footage of the event so hopefully get some good shots for facebook.
