Trearddur Bay
Bae Trearddur
A Blue Flag beach town on Holy Island, with clear water and rocky reefs, ideal for swimming, snorkelling and kayaking.
Trearddur Bay lies on the west coast of Holy Island. Its main beach holds a Blue Flag award and is flanked by low rocky reefs; on clear days the water turns blue-green, making it ideal for swimming, snorkelling, stand-up paddleboarding and sea kayaking. The quieter coves nearby, such as Porth Dafarch, are even more peaceful. The town has seaside hotels, cafés and an RNLI lifeboat station. The coast path runs north to South Stack and can be combined with Holyhead Mountain and the lighthouse on the same day. Admission is free; allow 1–3 hours.
