Anglesey Coastal Path: Cemaes to Church Bay

Today’s 17km walk from Cemaes to Church Bay explored some of the most remote coastline on the island, particularly from Carmel Head down to Church Bay. Although this section of the coastal path does include Wylfa Power Station, this is soon surpassed by the isolation of the beautiful rocky coastline. Starting at the pretty village […]

Anglesey Coastal Path: Holyhead to Llanfachraeth

The Isle of Anglesey Coastal Path begins and ends at Saint Cybi’s Church in Holyhead. This section is traditionally the end of the Anglesey coastal path, although it really does not matter which way you walk the coastal path and in what order you choose to walk the various sections. Each walk offers something unique. […]

Anglesey Coastal Path: Aberffraw to Llyn Rhos-ddu

An enjoyable and easy 21km walk from Aberffraw, through Malltraeth, Newborough Forest and Ynys Llanddwyn (at mid to low tide) to Llyn Rhos-ddu. A cold, frosty start to the day, but clear and bright. As the tide was out, we followed the estuary to the beach at Traeth Mawr. Walking along the beach we turned […]

Anglesey Coastal Path: Rhosneigr to Four Mile Bridge

As we left Rhosneigr our half day walk today (11km) was accompanied by the roaring sounds of fighter jets training at RAF Valley. Despite the noice we enjoyed the spectacle. As the tide was out we started along the beautiful expanses of sandy beaches at Rhosneigr, along Traeth Crigyll and Traeth Cymyran. Note: There is […]

Anglesey Coastal Path: Moel y Don to Llyn Rhos-ddu

A cold and blustery 12km walk on the coastal path today. Great views across the Menai Strait to the Snowdonia mountains and the town of Y Felinheli. In times gone by, a ferry used to provide a regular crossing at Moel-y-don on Anglesey to Y Felinheli on the mainland, transporting quarrymen who worked in the […]

Anglesey Coastal Path: Red Wharf Bay to Beaumaris

Another glorious day walking the Isle of Anglesey Coastal path today, even if it was overcast for most of the day.   The 22km provides varied landscape and amazing views.  From the sandy Red Wharf Bay, expanses of marsh, farm tracks, coastal paths and isolated coves. The highest point is at Bwrdd Arthur. On our way to […]

Anglesey Coastal Path: Llanfair Pwllgwyngyll to Beaumaris

A lovely sunny day today to complete a 13km walk from Llanfair Pwllgwyngyll to Beaumaris. The highlights of the walk are: little sheltered coves during the first part of the walk along the shoreline; the statue dedicated to Admiral Lord Nelson which acts as a marker for ships on the dangerous Menai Strait; the Britannia Bridge […]
