The chapel
is within walking distance of Porth Dafach blue flag beach. We are
extremely lucky here because a mile further down the road is Treaddur
Bay, another blue flag beach, which means we can offer the highest
standards of bathing quality and beach management that you can get.
The area is
a mecca for water sports enthusiasts, with a fabulous range of conditions-
sheltered sandy bays, remote coves, calm or wild waters and smaller
offshore islands. Perfect for sailing, surfing and canoeing. Superb
for a spot of sea fishing from shore or boat. Treaddur Bay is popular
for its sailing and hosts an annual regatta in August. Diving opportunities
are brilliant, including more than 100 wrecks to explore in clean,clear
water. There is an excellent dive shop in Treaddur Bay.
Turn right out
of the chapel and at the end of South Stack Road is South Stack
Cliffs and Lighthouse. This breathtaking cliff top site on Holy
Island boasts walks, a visitor centre and closed circuit tv to view
nesting birds. In summer over 4,000 pairs of sea birds nest at South
Stack Cliffs. From Ellins Tower Visitor Centre you can watch Puffins,
Guillemots and Razorbills and using binoculars and telescopes see
live pictures of the birds on the cliff. Stretch your legs on a
choice of more than 650 miles ( 1056 km ) of footpaths, spanning
everything from rugged coastal cliffs to ancient woodlands or tread
the 400 steps down to South Stack Lighthouse.
