Porth Ceiriad is a spectacular beach surrounded by high cliffs and with views out across Cardigan Bay to the mountains of Snowdonia. An impressive setting for some equally impressive surf. Access to the beach is via a half mile walk across fields and then down some steep steps cut into the cliff. You will then be greeted by a steeply shelving beach and some powerful waves, best left to more experienced surfers. It is also possible to windsurf from here, but its difficult access and dangerous nature make it unpopular. Less experienced surfers should head to nearby Hells Mouth Sports Suitability Surf Conditions at Porth Ceiriad can be Excellent Buggying Conditions at Porth Ceiriad are Not Good Windsurfing Conditions at Porth Ceiriad can be Excellent Kitesurfing Conditions at Porth Ceiriad are Unknown
