Holyhead is the largest town on the island of Anglesey and is perhaps known best for being a busy ferry port. The town centre offers a number of good places to eat, a theatre and a cinema. There are a range of places for the visitor to stay and Holyhead is often used as an overnight stop on the way to, or from, holidaying in Ireland or as a centre for touring the island of Anglesey itself. Around Holyhead there are also a number of fishing, golfing and, of course, sailing facilities.
