Porth Neigwl or Hell's Mouth as it is also known gets the brunt of any south westerly swells coming up from the Atlantic between Cornwall and southeast Ireland. The beach attracts thousands of surfers every year, but with this has come problems, there can sometimes be litter all over the place, some of which comes off ferries, but visitors often contribute to the problem, so please, take your litter home.

The car park is about a 500m walk from the beach across sand dunes. The top of the beach is made up of large pebbles, whilst lower down there is plenty of sand that is exposed at low tide. Porth Neigwl is 4 miles long, and the access described above is located less than a mile from the village of Llanengan at the southern end of the beach.
