Moelfre,
Anglesey Lligwy | Traeth yr Ora | Din Lligwy Traeth Lligwy (Lligwy Beach) Lligwy Beach is just a couple of miles from Moelfre village. The beach has a great stretch of sand, very extensive at low tide, and is popular with visitors. It is surrounded by open countryside so it has a much more open feel to it than other beaches. Several caravan sites and other holiday facilities are within walking distance. If travelling by car, there are two car parks. They are both pay and display with tickets on sale in the small shop in the south car park. Alternatively, the walk from Moelfre (30-60 minutes) is one of the most popular sections on the Isle of Anglesey Coastal Path. In the photos below, the
beach is fairly quiet. The photos were all taken in springtime of 2012
just as the Easter holidays were beginning. In the summer the beach is a
lot busier.
Traeth yr Ora Traeth yr Ora is a small sandy beach
at the mouth of Dulas Bay and is on the seaward side of the stretch of land that protects the inlet at Dulas. It is about a mile north
of Lligwy, but is usually much quieter,
probably because it can't be reached by car. Nearest
parking facilities are at Lligwy Beach, but there are several camping
and caravan sites nearby. I took these photos on a walk from Lligwy to Traeth yr Ora and back again
along the coastal path. There are a couple of inlets and small beaches on
the way and the first two photos below are of one of these, Porth y Môr. From the beach, Ynys Dulas, a small rocky outcrop with a tower, looks as
though it is almost opposite. In fact it is much closer to the land on the
north side of Dulas Bay and I have a couple of photos of it on another page.
The final picture in this set is the start of the path that leads away from the
beach up to the lane. It is also the Coastal Path route around Traeth
Dulas. Din Lligwy The images below are all scanned
from old prints and were originally taken about 2001. From left to right, the
pictures show the Din Lligwy settlement (2 pictures), the burial
chamber and the chapel. |
