This beach has 4 main breaks and is the most productive of the Llaen. The beach, which is of a large size, picks up the faintest of southwest background swell so if this place is flat forget other areas.
The water quality at this beach is one of the best in Wales according to the EA. There is sea borne rubbish on the beach at times though this is now cleaned regularly and the beach has just been give "Green Coast" status (bit like a blue flag).
I couldn't of asked for a better oppurtunity to surf. As an experienced surfer I love the awe of huge waves but my hefty build often lets me down. The waves were in excess of 15ft. Watchout for the seals as they go for well built people as I learned the hard way.
Was at the mouth on Monday 30th December. Awesome. As big as it can handle which is about 8ft (15ft??????) clean and long rides breaking all the way across the bay. Great way to end the year.
When it's on, comparable to the best day at G-Land, fast, hollow waves rope down the peninsula for 300 metres, rarely sectioning. So many classic sessions here I can't even begin to tell you. Generally a relaxed place. The Llyn has a magic atmosphere.
Lets be honest!! Comparable to G-Land I think not! Yes the 'mouth gets good waves and the corner is enjoyable but on all but the very best of days its a big fat wegde, rather than hollow. Picks up most swell in the area and a good indicator to start looking for other spots.
