Plan your visit to Anglesey
Ynys Môn, the Mother of Wales, is ringed by a coastal path of around 125 miles, and much of the coast is a protected National Landscape. Here is everything you need to plan a trip, from where to stay and what to see to getting here and getting around.
Everything for your trip
Anglesey is small enough to cross in under an hour, but every corner is different: the Menai Strait and Beaumaris in the south-east, Holy Island and South Stack in the west, and fishing villages and long sandy bays along the north and east coasts.

Twelve local guides, from castle-town Beaumaris to surf village Rhosneigr and the copper town of Amlwch.
