A Natural Classroom for Sea Kayaking

Anglesey is world-renowned for its sea kayaking conditions. That’s why it’s the home of Sea Kayaking UK and the birthplace of many designs used around the world.

You’ll find:

  • Tidal races like Penrhyn Mawr and South Stack
  • Sheltered bays for confidence-building coaching
  • Gentle journeys for those wanting a more relaxed pace
  • Wildlife-rich waters with seals and seabirds
  • Clear navigation features for learning and improving

This is where many of the UK’s best paddlers cut their teeth — and where our all-women coaching team shares their experience with you.

Perfect for Relaxing, Resetting & Connecting

But Anglesey is more than just sea kayaking.

It’s a place where you can:

  • Start the day with a calm saltwater dip
  • Stretch out on the sand during morning yoga
  • Wander coastal paths and forage along the shoreline
  • Sit around a fire in the evening surrounded by friends
  • Watch the sunset melt into the Irish Sea
  • Enjoy peaceful mornings with coffee and fresh sea air

It’s the perfect blend of adventure and calm — exactly what a festival weekend should be.

Rich Welsh Culture & Warm Community

Anglesey has a strong sense of identity and tradition. Small seaside towns, friendly cafés, local food, ancient sites, and a slower pace of life make it the ideal backdrop for a women-centred weekend focused on growth, confidence, and connection.

You’ll feel it the moment you arrive.
