Attractions
There are numerous lakes to visit, including Llyn Alaw, renowned
as one of Wales' most productive lakes. Choose the challenge of
the sea, perched precariously on a rocky promontory or you could
experience the open spaces and spectacular sunsets of a sandy beach
at dusk.
Heritage
The beautiful 13th Century castle town of Beaumaris, with its streets
lined with a unique combination of Edwardian and Georgian architecture
and quaint Welsh cottages, was once the capital of Anglesey. The
French meaning of Beaumaris is 'Beautiful Marshes', which holds
true when you witness the beautiful scenery, and pay a visit to
the many heritage sights the town has to offer.
Culture
Anglesey is perhaps best known though for its famous village with
Europe's longest place name:
Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch (click
here to hear it pronounced). The Welsh national language is
rarely spoken throughout Wales, the Isle of Anglesey is a refreshing
exception, with almost 70% of the local population speaking Welsh.
