Anglesey (Ynys Môn) surf guide
Surf: General: Not exactly renowned for the quality of its surf, this long stretch of sandy beach is more popular with kitesurfers and windsurfers, but on those super rare days when a SW swell threads the needle between Ireland and the Llyn Peninsula there can be fun waves here. It mostly gets onshore windswell through. Better banks form by the stream.
Tides: Works through the tides.
Size: Waist to shoulder high.
Wind: NE
Swell: Big SW
Bottom: Sand.
Paddling: OK when small, heavy paddle when big.
Spot Rating: Not a classic worth travelling for, really a once in a blue moon kind of spot. Super fickle beachbreak, usually onshore windswell.
Access: Tricky parking, a couple of small car parks set back from the beach.
Crowds: Crowd Factor: Quiet.
Local Vibe: Chilled.
Environment: OK.
Hazards: Rips and currents when big.
Season: December - February.
