The Best Beaches Near Pwllheli

Gimblet Rock is just one of the many beaches near Pwllheli which provide tourists with the chance to have unforgettable holiday experiences. One of these destinations is Carreg y Defaid beach which is a popular kitesurfing destination thanks to its relatively flat and secluded characteristics.

 

However, it is the nearby Abersoch beach which is the genuine watersports capital of North Wales. In fact, it feels as though the whole village revolves around these activities with the village high street being filled with affiliated brands such as Fat Face & Crew Clothing in addition to independent outlets such as the Abersoch Surf Shop which offer clothing and apparel applicable to the sports.

 

Many of these stores offer equipment rental options, ensuring that even newbies can try their hand at fun activities such as paddleboarding, windsurfing and wild swimming without being forced to fork out to buy any of the necessary equipment.
