Golf enthusiasts can play at the Bull Bay Golf Club nearby, and sea fishing is a particularly well-liked past time in Amlwch. Take a ferry to Dublin and spend the day experiencing Irish culture or stay on Anglesey and take advantage of one of the island’s stunning beaches. Whatever your inclination, you will undoubtedly enjoy yourself in this magnificent beach setting.
