The Best Beaches on Anglesey

15 March 2026 Owen

Anglesey is blessed with over 120 miles of coastline and some of the finest beaches in Wales. Whether you are after a sheltered sandy cove for the family, a windswept stretch for walking the dog, or a dramatic rocky bay for a bracing winter stroll, the island has something for every mood and season.

1. Trearddur Bay

Our home beach and for good reason. A beautiful sheltered sandy bay with crystal-clear water, perfect for swimming, paddle boarding and kayaking. The beach is backed by the sailing club and is just a few minutes walk from most of our properties.

 

 

2. Rhosneigr

 

A wide, windswept beach that has become a magnet for kite surfers and windsurfers. The village itself is charming, with independent shops, a fantastic cafe scene, and several good restaurants.

3. Newborough Beach and Llanddwyn Island

Newborough Beach and Llanddwyn Island, Anglesey

Often ranked among the best beaches in Britain. The forest walk down to the beach is an experience in itself, opening out onto a vast expanse of sand with views across to Snowdonia.

4. Benllech

Benllech beach, Anglesey

A classic family beach on the east coast. Gently sloping sands, rock pools at low tide, and a village with ice cream shops and fish and chip takeaways.

5. Church Bay

Church Bay (Porth Swtan), Anglesey

A small, photogenic bay on the north-west coast with a cafe right on the beach. The snorkelling here is excellent on a calm day.
