FORYD BAY
Foryd Bay. This horseshoe bay has very strong rip tides but is also a good location to practice carve gybes if you are competent with water starts. It is only possible to sail two hours either side of high tide because the water in the bay disappears and sailing while the tide is going out isn’t really suitable, unless you are an experienced sailor.
