Paddleboarding escapades in North Wales

Paddleboarding escapades in North Wales

North Wales, with its stunning coastlines, peaceful rivers, and serene estuaries has long been a paddleboarders’ paradise.

Whether you're dipping your toes into the sport for the first time or you're seeking new waters to explore, our region offers endless opportunities for adventure.

With that in mind, we’re diving into some of our favourite boltholes for paddleboarding adventures...

Ty Mawr

With its garden leading directly on to Llanddona Beach, Ty Mawr is the perfect base for paddleboarders. With wide open coastal waters right on your doorstep, you can launch your paddleboard at first light and glide across the calm sea as the sun rises over the horizon, with stunning panoramic views of Red Wharf Bay.

Once you're done exploring the coastline, return to this delightful hideaway, where you can rest and refuel on the mezzanine for another day of paddleboarding bliss. With breathtaking views and a peaceful atmosphere, Ty Mawr is a paddleboarding retreat like no other.


Min Y Don

Min y Don is a colourful bolthole, which sits above the sandy estuary of the Afon (river) Ffraw – perfect for those looking for a tranquil drift along the water.

Tucked away in Aberffraw, this bolthole is in a wonderful location for exploring the south and west coasts of Anglesey. The Anglesey coastal path is also nearby, where you can discover glorious hidden beaches and rock pools.

Min y Don gives you the chance to immerse yourself in nature, combining coastal exploration with tranquillity. After a day of adventure, enjoy the wood-fired hot tub, relax, and recharge while gazing out over endless sea views. This spot is perfect for those who love both adrenaline and relaxation in equal measure.




Tideaway

If you're seeking both convenience and charm, Tideaway is just the hideaway for you.

With the Trearddur Bay shoreline just a hop, skip and jump away, this bolthole allows you to make the most of North Wales’s paddleboarding scene without venturing far from home. Even better? Paddleboards are on loan from Blue Chameleon, just a 2-minute walk from Tideaway, making it incredibly easy to gear up and hit the water at a moment’s notice.

Return for a hot chocolate in the child and dog-safe garden or relax in the hot tub and congregate on the sofa on the patio area. Or, if a tipple is on your mind, enjoy a well-deserved drink (or two!) at one of the many fantastic pubs in Trearddur Bay.




Now, all that’s left to do is grab your board, book your bolthole, and let North Wales’s incredible waters and landscapes take your breath away. Whether you're craving adrenaline-filled coastal adventures or quiet paddles along a meandering afon, North Wales has it all.
