Llangrannog
Edit SpotAbout
Nice spot. Friendly, community feel to the town, with great accommodation scattered across the hillside. Worth a visit for the scenery and ice cream, let alone the surfng.
Atmosphere:
It's not brilliant, but it can be pretty big when a storm hits the Irish sea though, and well worth a visit if you're close by. Produces nice rights of the northern rocks and lefts off the southern end.
Additional Info:
I'm not saying that this spot is great, nor should you turn up from Cardiff for the week with high expectations. However, this spot can produce a good swell, particularly in stormy weather, or in SouthWest swells.

Park in the Llangrannog car park, get out, and walk down to the shore. Alternatively, you could walk around Carreg Bica to the North which leads to a beach called Cilborth, which usually has marginally better surf.
