Three Peaks on Gower is an exposed reef break that has pretty consitent surf and can work at any time of the year. Works best in offshore winds from the northeast with some shelter here from south winds. Most of the surf here comes from groundswells and the ideal swell direction is from the west. The beach break provides left and right handers. Good surf at all stages of the tide. Sometimes crowded. Take special care here if it gets very crowded.
