About this beach
Located on the west coast of Anglesey, the south facing beach is a sandy cove, measuring 250 metres on a low tide. On a high tide the beach is mainly shingle. The bay is located within the Anglesey Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, in addition to the Holy Island Coast Special Projection Area and the Glannau Rhoscolyn Site of Special Scientific Interest, confirming the high conservation status of the area. The water quality sample point is located opposite the public footpath leading from the left hand corner of the car park.
