beautiful west facing Porth Dafarch beach on the Anglesey Coast Path. Click the description for info

Porth Dafarch cove and the blue flag beach itself is a crescent shaped coasteering capital of Anglesey, the place people go to swim and explore the rugged rocks and coastline of west Anglesey.

When we stayed at Anglesey Outdoors, we discovered Porth Dafarch beach which is just a 10 minute stroll away.


With the beach offering easy access, kayaking and paddle boarding are also popular from the beach.

And of course, swimming from the golden sanded shoreline is hugely popular at the sheltered west-facing beach.

The Anglesey Coastal Path.

It’s circular, spectacular and low level (well…largely!)…what more could you want from a long distance coastal path?

The route around Anglesey, the island tucked up against Wales’s north west coast, is around 125 miles long.

A fit energetic walker who’s in a hurry can complete the circuit in around four days; others may decide to take longer.

The Anglesey Coastal Path is conveniently divided into twelve sections allowing the walker to take on around 10 miles per day, a reasonably modest target for experienced walkers.

Whether you aim to complete the walk in one go, or chalk off each bit, section by section, the walk offers a unique opportunity to explore the natural beauty of the Anglesey coastline.

Traditionally the walk starts at St Cybi’s Church in Holyhead and heads in a south easterly direction towards Treaddur Bay.

As this section does contain the most dramatic sections of the entire walk – and up to 600 metres climbing – it’s very much a baptism of fire.
