Continuing our Cemaes headland walk we come to a secluded sandy cove near the village of Llanbadrig and its old church. The large crescent shaped bay is backed by cliffs but it is the large white quartzite sea stack that sits mid-beach that identifies Porth Padrig. The “White Lady” is named after after Ladi Wen, a ghost from Celtic mythology. The beach itself is named after St Patrick as it is said the saint took shelter in a nearby cave after being shipwrecked. See PiPs. Enjoy full screen.
