- The Menai Suspension Bridge. It’s unlikely you'll miss this Anglesey highlight, the Menai Suspension Bridge. You're highly likely to drive across it. Built by Thomas Telford and opened in 1826, it’s the first modern suspension bridge in the world and it connects the mainland to Menai Town - one of the five towns in Anglesey.

Llanddwyn Island is one of the most beautiful places I visited during my visit to Anglesey, and it’s got some historical significance too which makes it even better. The island is linked to the story of St Dwynwen, the Welsh patron saint of lovers. After being unlucky with love, she became a nun and set up a convent here. You can find out her full ...
Whilst experienced kayakers can explore the island by kayak, for most people, it’s best to visit Puffin island onboard a Puffin island cruise. These take off from Beaumaris pier and take around 80 minutes, with 25 minutes travel time and around half an hour around the island. You won’t actually get to step foot on the island because it’s privately ...
Of course, no visit to Anglesey would be complete without plenty of scenic walks along the Anglesey Coastal Path, now part of the Wales Coastal Path which runs around the entire coastline of Wales. The path offers stunning views across the sea, with parts of the mainland and the Llyn Peninsular visible from some parts too. There are a variety of la...
Eglwys Cwyfan, or St Cwyfan’s Church, is a small medieval church that sits on a tidal island. This was one of my favourite spots in Anglesey and is especially beautiful at sunset. At high tide, the island and church are totally surrounded by water which is why it’s often referred to as the Little Church in the Sea. The church can be visited along t...
South Stack Lighthouse is one of Anglesey’s working lighthouses which is found at the northern tip, just off the coast of Holy Island. As well as visiting the museum at the lighthouse, you can go up the tower where you can see for miles across the coast and a knowledgeable guide will explain how it works. The lighthouse is now fully automated and e...
Llynon Windmill is the last working windmill in Wales producing flour. However, during my visit, one of the sails was broken so it wasn’t actually working but it was still nice to see and you can go inside too. Perhaps the best part about visiting Llynon is the Monuts store where you can buy the most amazing donuts that are freshly made and baked o...
Beaumaris Gaol (an old English word that’s pronounced ‘Jail’) was the jail for the whole of Anglesey during the 1800s and it’s even where capital punishments were carried out. It’s now open for visitors where you can get an interesting, albeit very grim, look into the 19th-century punishment system in Wales. You can explore the cells, see the whipp...
Angelsey is home to Beaumaris Castle, which is often dubbed the greatest castle never built. That’s because it was supposed to be one of the greatest castles built by Edward I as part of his Iron Ring of Castles. However, funds fell short, especially when there were wars in Scotland to fund at the time, so the castle was never complete. the outside...
(scroll to map) The Menai Bridge is a renowned bridge, not just in Anglesey but across the world as it was the first ever major suspension bridge. Designed by Thomas Telford, it was built way back in 1826. The best way to appreciate the bridge is to take the Menai Bridge circular walk which takes you around the coastline of Menai Bridge, underneath...
Halen Môn (translates as Anglesey Salt) is an award-winning produced or sea salt based on the coast of Anglesey. The family-owned business has been selling sea salt since 1997 and today employs over 20 people on the island. You’ll find their salt for sale in many local shops and it’s often used by local restaurants too, but if you visit their facto...

- Menai Suspension Bridge Viewpoint. Before the building of the Expressway, Menai Bridge was the only way to access Anglesey by road. Prior to Menai, farmers used to have to make their sheep swim the distance!
- Church Island. One of the most worthwhile things to do on Anglesey is discover the many small islands surrounding it. One of these is Church Island, a tiny speck of land near Menai Bridge.
- Llanddwyn Bay. Of all the beaches on Anglesey, this is easily my favourite. The sandy coastline stretches for miles and the sea is shallow with gentle waves.
- Llanddwyn Island (Ynys Llanddwyn) This tiny ‘island’ is separated from Anglesey during high tides but, for the most part, it’s easy to reach Llanddwyn Island from Llanddwyn Bay.
