FBOR'23 Sunday Entries

Fishguard Bay Ocean Race 2023 (FBOR’23) is a major downwind Ocean Ski race along Pembrokeshire’s wild, award winning north coast – starting at Goodwick beach and crossing 14+km of open sea to finish on the wide sandy beach at Newport.

FBOR’23 is the 8th year of this annual tussle and on Sunday 9th July the course is open to Advanced and Intermediate competitors with their own set of medals, trophies and other prizes, just as in previous years.

Paddlers from all over the UK and beyond compete to test their fitness, boat-handling and seamanship skills, to win this “black-belt,” no-holds-barred ocean race.

You’ll paddle deep clear water, past towering cliffs and, after a long (hopefully downwind) leg finish in front of Newport Surf Lifesaving Club – we’re keeping fingers crossed for stellar downwind conditions!
