About Winging at Arbroath

Arbroath on the East Coast of Scotland is a rugged and rewarding 'bump and jump' spot for experienced wingers and windsurfers. Launching near the harbour, riders are treated to an atmospheric session framed by red sandstone cliffs. Arbroath is known for its consistent North Sea swell and high-energy conditions, providing excellent jumping ramps in Easterly winds. The local community is hardy and long-established. Because of the rocky coastline, wing foilers should aim for high-tide sessions.
