Sandy Bay
Edit SpotAbout
Lekker
Atmosphere:
Great winter spot though fairly consistent all year round. Good, hollow waves. Loads of nudists on the beach. Great scenery.
Additional Info:
When Llandudno is closing out, Sandy Bay is a good option. This nudist colony is tucked away in the next bay and is a 20-minute walk from the car park. Mostly a short shorebreak wave, Sandy's can throw up perfect barrels on the shallow sand banks. It handles the southeaster well and can cope with a southerly if it's not too strong.
