This stunning peninsula is designated as an area of outstanding natural beauty.
Surrounded by the sparkling clear waters of the Irish Sea on one side and Cardigan Bay on the other, if a holiday abroad is based on quiet sandy beaches, luxury and intriguing places to visit then this area of Wales is a perfect staycation replacement.There are remains of Iron Age Forts and islands to discover, sweeping stretches of sandy beaches and plenty of cute coastal villages and historic sites to visit.
Beaches to visit:
There are plenty of beautiful beaches to explore, from family and dog-friendly spots to a surfer's paradise.
Llanbedrog beach is now owned by the National Trust and stretches for over a mile, Porth Neigwl beach is also known as Hell's Mouth and with quality waves is popular with surfers and water activity enthusiasts.
Abersoch Beach is known for its soft sand and colourful beach huts and is popular with families.
Porth Oer beach is also known as Whistling Sands as bizarrely the sand actually whistles under your feet as you walk, so a good choice for the family to explore.
For a quieter beach experience try the cove of Porth Iago near Pwllheli.
Things to do:
On the southern coast of the peninsula the magical ruin of Criccieth Castle stands proud on top of a rocky headland overlooking the village and beach.
Wander further south down the coast and Harlech Castle is waiting to impress you. This handsome castle has arguably one of the most dramatic settings, crowning a rocky crag with a sheer drop down to the flat plains below.
Designated a World Heritage Site, Harlech castle has experienced many sieges and battles, and was once the centre of power of Owain Glyndwr, Prince of Wales.
There are many intriguing ancient sites to visit in the region but maybe one of the most popular is Tre'r Ceiri hill fort near Trefor on the northern coast.
The fort is said to be one of the best and most complete Iron Age hill forts in Britain, where the remains of gateways, ramparts and round houses can still be seen.
A stay within the Llyn Peninsula region would not be complete without a visit to the incredible village of Portmeirion.
A day trip is the very least a visitor to the area should consider to take the time to absorb the unique and pretty Italian-style village built on the Welsh coastline.
There are plenty of outdoor activities to choose on and around the Llyn Peninsula, from water sports at beaches to course river fishing.
There are many established walks along the Llyn coastal path with mesmerizing sea views and across the peaceful countryside, from a few miles stroll to a full day of rambling.
For an Adrenalin rush try the Dragon Raiders Activity Park featuring a paintball park and Segway adventures and the Bear Grylls Survival Academy.
