Porth Neigwl, also referred to as Hell’s Mouth is more famous for its good waves that attract thousands of surfers every year. It’s also popular with families, the top of the beach is made up of large pebbles, whilst lower down there is plenty of sand that is exposed at low tide. Porth Neigwl is a 4 mile, dog friendly beach, accessed through 500m of sand dunes from a car park near the village of Llanengan.

Porth Iago is one of the Llyn’s hidden treasures. A small sheltered cove within naturally formed clifftops, it is certainly one beach that should be visited.

Llŷn’s ‘capital’ fills many roles – seaside resort with fine blue banner beach, busy market town with art galleries and very popular sailing and watersports centre with one of the best modern marinas in the UK. Hafan Pwllheli gives access to the inviting sailing waters of Cardigan Bay and the Irish Sea. See the wildlife – seals, seabirds and dolphins – on coastal cruises. Excellent leisure centre to keep the kids entertained, along with activity-packed Glasfryn Parc. Penarth Fawr medieval house nearby. 

This stunning award-winning golf course is one to put on your golfing list, hugging the South Llyn coastline it forms a great challenge for golfers of all capabilities. Part links part parkland, once completed you will want to settle into the welcoming lounge bar and patio, serving great local beers and produce.

Harlech Castle’s battlements spring out of a near-vertical cliff-face. Edward’s tried and tested ‘walls within walls’ model was put together in super-fast time between 1283 and 1295 by an army of nearly a thousand skilled craftsman and labourers. ‘Men of Harlech’, Wales’s unofficial anthem loved by rugby fans and regimental bands alike, is said to describe the longest siege in British history (1461–1468) which took place here during the War of the Roses.

None of Edward I’s mighty coastal fortresses has a more spectacular setting, Harlech Castle crowns a sheer rocky crag overlooking the dunes far below – waiting in vain for the tide to turn and the distant sea to lap at its feet once again. Harlech was completed from ground to battlements in just seven years under the guidance of gifted architect Master James of St George. Its classic ‘walls within walls’ design makes the most of daunting natural defences.
