Awaiting you on the the Llyn peninsula is a wealth of pastimes catering for both the active and more relaxed holiday. The peninsula, an area of outstanding natural beauty, is home to outstanding beaches most of whish are accessable by the coastal path. The coastal path leads along the rocky northern coastline, and sandy beaches, past a natural rock arch in the sea to Tudweiliog and Aberdaron with wonderful views of Bardsey Island, past home to the King of Bardsey. From Saint Marys Well you can see the daring route taken across Bardey sound by the pilgrims on route to Bardsey Island. The path winds up the southern peninsula, past the surfing beaches of Porth Neigwl and Porth Ceiriad, to the vibrant village of Abersoch which offers a more vibrant scene with numerous fine restaurants with the picturesque villages of Aberdaron, Tudweiliog and Morfa Nefyn offering a more relaxed atmosphere still with easy access to extensive beaches and good food.
Compared with the Snowdonia mountains Garn Fadryn, lying near the heart of the Llyn, offers a more gentle but still stimulating walk to the summit. The 360 degree views around the Llyn Peninsula with sights of the Snowdonia mountains are amazing. Foel Gron, a rounded hill lying to the west of the Mynytho, provides a more gentle climb and superb views over Abersoch, St. Tudwal's Islands and Porth Neigwl (Hell's Mouth).
The Llyn Penisula is a watersports mecca with the town of Pwllheli hosting a number of international sailing events and providing modern marina facilities. Great surfing is to be had at Porth Ceiriad, Porth Neigwl and Whistling Sands to name a few. Abersoch is host to the annual wakeboarding competition Wakestock, Europes largest wakeboarding music festival, attracting wake boarders from around the world to compete during the day and party into the early hours.
Perhaps you would like to just relax on the beach and bask in the local micro-climate. The southern beaches of the Lyn are often referred to as the Welsh Riveria helped by the warm air from the gulf stream whilst the beaches on the north coast offer some of the most stunning sun sets you will see.
Whatever your desires come and stay on the Llyn Peninsula and enjoy.
