Anglesey, connected to the mainland by two bridges, offers a genuine island holiday within North Wales — over 100 miles of coastline, Blue Flag beaches, and a noticeably different pace to the mainland resort towns.

A coastline for every kind of day

From the sandy beaches around Rhosneigr and Benllech to the dramatic South Stack cliffs near Holyhead, Anglesey’s coast varies enough that you can build a genuinely different day out depending on the weather and mood.

Watersports and wildlife

The island is well known for watersports (particularly around Rhosneigr) and coastal wildlife, including seabird colonies at South Stack — worth building into your plans if you want more than beach time.

Choosing a base

Anglesey is a genuinely large island, so decide which stretch of coast you want closest before booking — travel times across the island can be longer than they look on a map.
