10 Outdoor Activities in Anglesey That You Shouldn't Miss

July 2, 2021 Alice Mieles

Prehistoric stone markers and monuments dot the landscape of the Isle of Anglesey, serving as stately beacons to visitors. The beaches of Rhosneigr are great for surfing, fishing and diving. The dunes and pebbly shores of Broad Beach span from the village all the way to the Barclodiad y Gawres neolithinc burial chamber. Hauntingly beautiful Beaumaris Gaol will give you chills. Warm up with a pony petting session at Foel Farm Park.

This horse riding school is an amazing place for anyone who loves horses or riding. The staff are ever so helpful and patient, nothing is too much trouble for them. We take our 6 year old Granddaughter there each week and she so loves it. You can have different times and also take the horses out on walks and treks to enjoy the fab views. The horses are looked after very well and they range in various sizes from small to very big ones, great for different abilities for people. they always have fresh hay and straw and water and you can see the staff all enjoy their work there, the best horse stable I have seen. Views from around there are amazing.

Llanddwyn Beach

Reviewed By pattersa - Liverpool, United Kingdom

This is an island but accessible on foot except for high tides. There are great views and a number of historical sites on the island. There are lots of little coves along the shores of the island, for a swim or a paddle. The nearest car park is the beach car-park at Newborough Warren, there are trails through the pine woods on the dunes or you can walk along the beach. Perfect for a day out with a picnic.
