Budleigh Salterton Beach Kitefoil Forecast

Budleigh Salterton Beach scores 95/100 for kitefoil today at its best ability level (expert). The beach faces S. A long, south-facing pebble beach of large, smooth cobbles beneath red sandstone cliffs, steeply shelving with no sand, where waves dump onto the stones rather than forming a rolling break. Suited to calm-water paddleboarding, sea kayaking, windsurfing, and swimming in settled conditions. RNLI lifeguards patrol seasonally (introduced 2025). Dangerous currents exist near the river mouth; entry is easiest at mid-tide, when the shorebreak eases.
