The Welsh refer to the enchanting Isle of Anglesey as the Mother of Wales and have looked after her accordingly by protecting her wild shores from over commercialisation.
The result is a totally unspoilt natural island of beauty which can only truly be appreciated by circumnavigating it’s wondrous outskirts by walking along the Anglesey Coastal Path. Ninety percent of its 140 miles lie within an Area of Outstanding Beauty.
Add to that the breath-taking backdrop of the Snowdonia Mountain range and the Llyn Peninsula, countless exquisite beaches, panoramic cliffs and a bounty of sea life and you have an amazing natural paradise.
This heavenly coastal nature trail also happens to be perfectly punctuated with picturesque fishing villages, quaint coastal towns, lighthouses and fascinating historical sites. As soon as you cross the Menai Straits the adventure begins.
Most start their discovery of Anglesey in Beaumaris, well known for its colourful Seahouses. But if you want an award winning beach on your doorstep then base yourself at Benllech. Beach lovers also like Cemaes Bay in the north, to enjoy the bonus of a beautiful lagoon and the historic sites including the Porth Wen Brickworks.
For those who want to get as far away from ‘terra firma’ as possible and immerse themselves in true Welsh culture then the resort of Trearddur Bay on the west coast of Holy Island is perfect. If you come accompanied by your faithful friend, Rhosneigr offers a great base, with a glorious all year round dog friendly beach.
Nature lovers who come to behold the amazing sea life, then Church Bay offers the best snorkelling conditions and boat trips to glimpse whales, seals and porpoise off shore. Dolphin fans could also head for Bull Bay where dolphins are often seen from the cliffs frolicking around the shore.
There are so many reasons to take to the coastal path on foot and explore this wondrous jewel in North Wales with family or friends. Not forgetting your four legged friends as many of the beaches on Anglesey are dog friendly.
