Local tip
Check the Wales Coast Path temporary diversions page before you set out, as sections are sometimes rerouted.

The Isle of Anglesey Coastal Path runs for about 200 km (Visit Anglesey also quotes 130 miles) around the island and forms part of the Wales Coast Path. Its official start is St Cybi's Church in Holyhead, and it passes through about 20 towns and villages. Most of the coast it follows lies within the Isle of Anglesey National Landscape.

What to see and do

Visit Anglesey splits the route into 12 sections, from Holyhead round the north coast to Cemaes and Amlwch Port, down the east coast to Beaumaris, along the Menai Strait, across the south-west coast to Aberffraw and back over Holy Island. Terrain ranges from easy shoreline to steep, rocky clifftops.

Good to know

Visit Anglesey suggests about 12 days for the whole route, and about 4,170 m of climbing. It says every section can be done using public transport. The path is mainly for walkers; cyclists and horse riders can use some parts. Keep dogs under close control.
