Porth Ceiriad

Abersoch, Gwynedd

Porth Ceiriad offers up some nice hollow wedging waves. There's a good left at low tide near the cliffs when the swell bounces off the cliffs producing perfect hollow A frame peaks in a northwesterly wind.

Surfing on the Lleyn Peninsula
Abersoch and the surrounding area, especially Porth Ceiriad and Hell's Mouth, are the centre of surfing in North Wales.

Abersoch has long been a bolthole for surfers from the North West, and many also make the trek from the Midlands. It can get crowded, but there’s room for all along the four mile stretch at Hell’s Mouth and the wedges of Porth Ceiriad. If you want to get a wave away from the Abersoch crowds, head over to Anglesey: seek and ye shall find… The best place to go if you’re looking to hire, get lessons or buy anything watersport-related in North Wales is West Coast Surf Shop in Abersoch.
