Caldy Island Relay & Windsurf Festival, Tenby - August Bank Holiday
|
Only a few days to go now now until the 2nd Annual Caldy Island relay and windsurfing festival will be held at Tenby's south beach....if you haven't already decided to come down and help us to raise money for Cancer Research then please do! This is very much a weekend for all the family....
This year you can expect much of the same, including demo kit to use from Simmer, Mistral, Fanatic, North and equipment tips from Farrel O'shea himself all weekend!
Ben and his North Kiteboarding Team will be on hand from 'south wales kitesurfing' to give tasters and entry level lessons/tips to give kitesurfing a go, or find out more and try the new kit!

The forecast is looking good so far for 3 days of windsurfing and kitesurfing as we enjoyed last year!
Saturday Night BBQ and beers will run on at the beach like last year.
Don't forget there are prizes to be won for the best 'Fancy Dress' team during the race!
Race Format for fun only!! - as before you can enter teams of 3, team names and fancy dress need to be considered! You can use one set of kit, or take out individual set ups (whatever suits you best). If you don't have a team don't worry, it's super relaxed and we'll put you in one when you arrive at sign up. One sailor out at a time in relay format.
We will aim to run the race on the saturday or sunday depending on the best forecast available. It will run no matter what the wind!! You can race on any board except formula and maximum sail size in 9m for this year.
All 3 days will run as windsurfing demo with the latest kit on hand and plenty of advice on set-up and sailing techniques....
Sign in is from 9.30am each day at the Clubhouse in the south beach car park upstairs. Cost is £20 per person including your event t-shirt and goody bag!
Please help me to spread the word about this fantastic annual event and help us to raise even more money for Cancer Researc, a cause we all beleive in greatly.
Hosted by Tenby Windsurf Club and Pura Vida Boardriders
Glandon Lovett was one of the most enthusiastic local windsurfers you would ever meet at Tenby South Beach! In his memory we are running a relay competition out to Caldy Island and back in teams of 3. Entry and registration will be on the Saturday morning and the relay will run on best wind. The maximum sail size is 8.5m on any board (excluding formula), teams may use up to 3 sets of kit or share. Name your teams now.....
Please note that you must have 3rd party insurance to take part.
Closest camping with beach access is at Kiln Park but there are various campsites, hotels, b&b’s etc. in and around Tenby, so book soon to avoid disappointment.
