Golden Bay Surf Guide

Golden Bay in Malta - Mediterranean is a fairly exposed sandbar break that only works when conditions are just right with no particular seasonal pattern. Works best in offshore winds from the east and there is no shelter here from cross shore breezes. Still reasonable in light onshore winds There is too little fetch for groundswells to form and the ideal wave angle is from the west. The sandbar breaks consists of lefts. Good surf at all stages of the tide. A fairly popluar wave that can sometimes get crowded
