Surfing

Although the island is mostly suited to assisted surfing, Rhosneigr is one of the best locations on the island to catch a wave. The best surf in the area tends to be during the colder winter months (specifically February), but the waters around Rhosneigr are a great place for newcomers to the sport – and there are some popular guided introductions available.

Rhosneigr beaches generally receive a mix of groundswells and windswells, while the best swell direction is from the southwest and waves at the beach break both left and right.

Dangerous rips are a hazard (albeit low) of surfing here, though even beginners will be within their comfort zone unless they venture quite far from the shore.
