Moelfre North Beach
Moelfre is lucky enough to have two beaches, the south beach nearer to the village of Moelfre, then the North beach. This beach is relatively small and comprises of large round pebbles.
This beach is especially pretty when the tide is in, although can be quite busy with people walking along the Coastal Path. When the tide is out its great to explore the rock pools.
Carry on walking past the Lifeboat station and The North beach is to the left, and if you carry on round to the right you will come across the sloping rocks which are very popular for shore fishing.
Anglesey Coastal Path
Moelfre headland is part of the Anglesey coastal path which in total is about 125 miles of mainly coastal path around Anglesey.
You can carry on over the beach heading in a northerly direction along the cliff tops which Welsh weatherman Derek Brockway did on his program “weatherman walking.”
Eventually you come to a memorial plaque to the site of the “Golden wreck” the Royal Charter which sank in 1859 with the loss of 450 men, women and children. The Royal Charter was carrying 10 tonne’s of gold.
Moelfre Seawatch Centre
If you travel from the village up the hill and round to the right of the headland along a coastal path you will see the Moelfre Sea Watch Centre on the left.
You will also see a statue to lifeboat man Richard ‘Dic’ Evans past and the new Moelfre lifeboat station on your right.
This was built in 2014 to accommodate the new lifeboat. The lifeboat station is normally open to the public where adults and children alike can enjoy the sight of this new huge lifeboat in it’s newly built home.
