it’s got mountains, sand and sea. Barmouth’s delights were rhapsodised by William Wordsworth, who, after a visit, said in 1824: ‘We took a boat and rowed up its sublime estuary, which may compare with the finest in Scotland, having the advantage of a superior climate.
‘With a fine sea view in front, the mountains behind, the glorious estuary running eight miles inland and Cader Idris within compass of a day’s walk, Barmouth can always hold its own against any rival.’
Barmouth beach is immense, even at high tide - plenty of room for the kids to use up all their energy. The resort also boasts a micro-climate, being slightly warmer in winter and cooler in summer

Nature and nurture combine to make Llandudno’s North Shore one of the great British seaside resorts. Nature gave it an impressive arc of sand and shingle, curving between the two headlands of the Great Orme and Little Orme. The nurture came in the form of grand seaside architecture arranged along that long curve, and preserved sensitively to this day. There is a pier too: stroll to the end of it and get a different perspective on that beach, and all the pastel-coloured hotels beyond.
In Llandudno, you can sit on the beach, stroll along the prom, watch a Punch and Judy show or head for the top of the Great Orme where the view down towards that beach is absolutely fabulous

Llanddwyn Bay has a long sandy beach which, on the right day, has striking views across the sea to Snowdonia. It is a very pleasant plod through soft sand to Llanddwyn Island itself, which has several picturesque little coves and lots of wildlife.
But be aware that high tides can cover the path onto Llanddwyn Island for an hour or so. If that is the case, try walking instead onto the next stretch of beach towards Malltraeth. It’s one of the most deserted and beautiful strands you will find.

You can’t beat a beach with a castle, and Criccieth has not one but two Blue Flag beaches plus the ruins of a castle standing in pride of place on a rocky outcrop between the two. If you don’t like a pebbly beach, Criccieth may not be your cup of tea. But a bit of stone underfoot is surely a small price to pay. To the west of the castle is Marine Beach, safe for bathing and family fun. To the east of the castle is another pebbly beach which boasts views of the Welsh mountains, the Dwyryd estuary and the curve of the bay. At low tide, there are rock pools to explore.~
Criccieth’s history goes back to the building of the castle around 1230.

Conway RoadThe long sheltered sandy beach has become very popular for watersports, including dinghy sailing, windsurfing and jet-skiing. This is a resort to which people return time and time again, and where those who can afford to do so will invest in a second home. Hence, large portions of Cheshire decamp to Abersoch for the summer, and find themselves well-served by the kinds of shops and restaurants they would expect at home.
But it’s not just a summer destination. Abersoch’s position, tucked away with its ‘back’ to the weather, means you may well get some pleasant beach days well out of season.
