This lively market town is the unofficial capital of Wales’ Llŷn Peninsula, known for its spectacular landscape, coastal walks, beaches, and golf courses. This beachfront community has stores, pubs, restaurants, and a 400-boat marina. The town has two Blue Flag-awarded beaches and is known for sailing and watersports. Criccieth’s mediaeval castle and Abersoch’s beaches and watersports facilities are nearby. Much of the peninsula is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and the National Trust owns much of the coastline, providing isolated bays, sandy beaches, and clifftop walks, as well as animal havens like Bardsey Island. Snowdonia, Anglesey, mediaeval castles, and National Trust houses and gardens await you in Wales.
