Anglesey Weekend 1 13th to 15th June 2025
This was the first of four Anglesey Club Camping Weekends this year. We use Tyn Rhos campsite in Trearddur Bay, which is an ideal location for access to a variety of paddling spots on Holy Island. We get discounted rates at the campsite, which has good showers and toilets, and there is a pub nearby. Activities include surfing, rock hopping, tidal flows at Four Mile Bridge and Stanley Embankment. Sea Kayaking has endless opportunities, and we arrange groups from those on the campsite to paddle. There are two more remaining Anglesey weekends this year. Click for more information…….
2025 06 14 Saturday – Stanley Embankment
Stanley Embankment (Anglesey, near Holyhead) is a popular tidal playspot where the spring tide rushes through a tunnel, creating a surfable standing wave – a thrill for kayakers and even surfboarders with the right skills and timing. You need to pass through from the seaward side at least 2 hours before HW Holyhead.
2025 06 14 Saturday – Four Mile Bridge
Four Mile Bridge spans the Cymyran Strait—also known as the “Inland Sea”—linking Holy Island and Anglesey.
Tidal flows rush through its bridge gap, creating a strong current ideal for kayaking, SUP, and beginner–intermediate tidal play.
2025 06 14 Saturday – Porth Eilian Sea Kayaking
Porth Eilian is a sheltered, rocky bay on the northeastern tip of Anglesey, nestled between the headland of Trwyn Eilian (Point Lynas) and the inlet called Porthyrychen, near the village of Llaneilian (post code LL68 9LT)
It is a Sheltered cove with a small shingle beach and rocky edges, ideal for calm-water paddling. It has
a solid slipway that allows easy craft launch; plus, there’s parking and toilets nearby. The location is a Wildlife hotspot for choughs, ravens, oystercatchers, gannets and offshore, seals, dolphins, and porpoises.
2025 06 14 Saturday Anglesey 1 Porth Dafarch Rock Hopping
Porth Dafarch is a sheltered sandy bay on the west coast of Holy Island, Anglesey — about 2 miles SW of Holyhead and 1.5 miles NW of Trearddur Bay (postcode LL65 2LS). It is owned by the National Trust and has a Blue Flag designation.
There’s a slipway and easy beach access, widely used year-round as a launch and landing point. Perfect for beginners, intermediates, clubs, guided trips, and improvised rock-gardening sessions. agged cliffs, sea caves, dyke intrusions, and tidal channels make it a playground for navigating narrow passages and playing around rocks.
2025 06 15 Sunday – Sea Kayaking Moelfre
Moelfre combines convenience, versatile paddling options, stunning scenery, rich wildlife, and community support, all within the charming setting of a historic fishing village with a strong lifeboat legacy. Moelfre South Beach offers a sheltered, easy-access launch—firm sand at high tide, with public toilets, parking, and cafés close by. Its small harbour and RNLI lifeboat station add convenient infrastructure and a sense of coastal community. We often paddle around Ynys Moelfre, a small island just off the coast across Y Swnt channel, home to seals, seabirds (gulls, terns, fulmars), and occasional porpoises.
