Llandudno

Llandudno is a beach break located on the North Wales coast facing west into the Irish Sea. The spot features an extensive sandy beach backed by dense residential development and a promenade infrastructure. The beach is characterized by tidal flats and sandbars that shift seasonally, creating variable conditions. Average wind speeds of 8.5 knots are relatively light, and low wind reliability (18.6%) suggests this is not a consistent destination. Water conditions are choppy with small average waves of 0.53m, indicating limited swell exposure. The spot suits beginners due to moderate wave heights and sandy bottom, though light and unreliable winds can be limiting factors. Water temperature averages 11.3°C, requiring appropriate thermal protection year-round. Strong tidal flows characteristic of this Welsh bay require awareness of timing. The proximity to urban infrastructure means regular beach use by the public. Best conditions occur with northerly winds providing side-shore conditions. This location functions more as an accessible urban beach break than a dedicated kitesurfing destination.
