Paddle the pristine waters of Cardigan Bay — home to one of Europe's largest resident bottlenose dolphin pods — with an expert sea-kayaking guide on a private small-group adventure from Criccieth's beach.
What to expect
Your BCU-qualified guide outfits you with top-grade kit and leads you from Criccieth Beach along the rocky headlands of the Llŷn Peninsula. Dolphins are frequently spotted in the bay, while grey seals bask on sea-washed rocks and gannets plunge-dive overhead. The pace is entirely relaxed — you stop when you want, drift when you want. The crystalline waters of this heritage coast are among the cleanest in Wales.
Good to know
Guides meet guests directly on Criccieth Beach — no transfer needed. Half-day tours typically run 3–4 hours, fitting comfortably within a port day. No prior kayaking experience is required; full safety and technique briefing included. Book the private group option for the most exclusive experience. Waterproof dry bags provided for cameras and valuables.
