It’s a pub on the beach (literally) in the village of Porthdinllaen that is a mile away from Morfa Nefyn. It was famously voted as one of the top 10 beach bars in the whole world, so most certainly worth a visit!

Nant Gwrtheyrn, also known as “the forgotten village”, is a wonderful place and a little piece of history. You’re able to learn more about the heritage of the area and the quarrymen who populated it in times gone by. Not to worry if history isn’t your cup of tea as the views alone are worth the trip and there are plenty of paths and trails to explore – why not walk down to the beach or explore the surrounding hills?
With a cafe for refreshments which makes the most of the view with an elevated deck, it’s a brilliant spot to soak up the surrounding scenery!

Also known as the Welsh Matterhorn, Fabulous peak to climb. We have done this and we are by no means climbers, challenging but worth it. Amazing views!

Land’s end at its most idyllic. This fishing village was the last stop for pilgrims on the way to Ynys Enlli, the ‘Isle of 20,000 Saints’ otherwise known as Bardsey Island, now a National Nature Reserve renowned internationally for its birdlife. Celebrated poet RS Thomas lived in a cottage within the beautiful grounds of Plas yn Rhiw, a small National Trust manor house. Call into the National Trust’s new interpretation centre, Porth y Swnt, for an insight into Llŷn’s special landscapes, seascapes and rich cultural heritage. And be prepared to get blown away by the awesome coastal views from Mynydd Mawr headland
