Description

Porthdinllaen an old fishing village perched on the end of a thin ribbon of land stretching into the Irish Sea, with its clear sheltered waters lapping against stout stone houses, Porthdinllaen really is a jewel.

You can watch fishermen bring in the daily catch, while relaxing with a drink at the Tŷ Coch Inn. In the summer you can view the ecologically rich seagrasses from a paddle board -- and have fun trying to stand up. If you’re looking for the best place to visit with family and kids, this is a perfect choice for a fun and relaxing day out.
