A few
minutes walk from Neuadd, is the beautiful sandy beach of Cemaes
Bay, which is ideal for families.
Refreshments may be purchased from the beach side kiosk. There
are two car parks which serve the beach as well as public
toilets.
From the harbour,
fishing trips operate as well as trips to the Skerries
Lighthouse and the Isle of Man, which can be arranged with local
boat owners.
Cemaes Bay and Anglesey in general are blessed with outstanding
scenery, through which the Anglesey Coastal Walk passes.
You
could walk from the headland cliffs of Cemaes Bay along the
coast to the quiet bay of Llanbadrig with its 5th Century church
(dedicated to St. Patrick, who was shipwrecked off the coast)
perched on the cliffs above. On a clear day, the Isle of Man and
the mountains of Cumbria can be clearly seen.
The bird sanctuary of Cemlyn (as seen on the Bird Watch
program on TV) is also within walking distance.
The costal path is well maintained and sign-posted and there are
many inland walks. Paths include Llanlleiana the most northerly
point in Wales - an area of outstanding natural beauty and
maintained by the National Trust. It is famous for the wild
flowers in spring. There is also a path to Porthwen brick works
and the beach there.
On the coastal path watch out for the seals, porpoise and
dolphins!
