The coves and bays of the Llŷn Peninsula can be as good as Cornwall, Devon or Pembroke. Here we are at Porth Meudwy, just south west of the tiny but popular seaside village of Aberdaron enjoying the splashing waves at low tide. Normally I would be under about 6ft of water here. This little cove even has some resident fishing boats and was once the embarkation point for pilgrims making the journey to Bardsey Island. It is a place to try a bit of surfing too.

Once upon a time this fence was here to protect man and beast from stepping too far over the edge of this cove side, straight into the sea. Now it only provides another welcome addition to my HFF collection whilst I watch my step taking this. Seen on the coastal path near Porth Yasgaden. I wish you all, a great weekend, Herb Nice full size!

The coastal path south from Whistling Sands takes us on to Anelog. Maybe not a mountain......but still a very nice walk indeed. PiP

An evening walk to our local bit of coast here near Anelog Mountain, Aberdaron. Enjoy full screen! PiP

A walk down to the small beautiful sandy bay of Porthor otherwise known as 'Whistling Sands' is always worthwhile. Here we see the right hand rocky side of the bay whilst the bigger expanse of sand is inhabited at this time of year by many children building sandcastles. Enjoy full size.. pip

As evening descends here on the Llŷn Peninsula the coastal mist starts to rise. Somewhere near me I hear the sound of a small mammal or bird moving through the undergrowth. Almost time to return to my digs and relax with my book. (No internet or telephone reception here!) I wish you all, a great weekend, Herb

A high view from this gem of the Llŷn Peninsula, Wales taken from the west cliff coastal path. As can be seen we are here in peak tourist school holiday time, hence the busy beach and car-park. Below to the left are the remains of an old pier perhaps. see pip

A coastal walk to the west of Aberdaron in North Wales can bring you down to the side of Aberdaron's large beach. The village itself lies to the right here and that is where all the tourist are. Here are signs of perhaps an old pier, long since swallowed by age and the sea. The coastal path itself runs along the top edge of these hills.
