Lleyn Peninsula Point & Bardsey Island. Pwllheli, Gwynedd. North West Wales.

The Llyn Peninsula is one of Wales finest beauty spots. The Lleyn Peninsula (the Llyn) is usually defined as the strip of land which is South West of the A487 which runs from Caernarfon to Porthmadog. For most of its length it is only 8 miles wide. Much of the coastline is National Trust maintained. The Welsh name for this area is Pen Llýn.
The Llyn offers a lot of activities. Apart from many established walks, there are many beaches. For the wildlife enthusiast there are many things to see; sea-lions, Chuff near Bardsey Island as seen in this video and many other bird species. Sailing, Fishing and Diving are also popular in the area. Boat trips are available to Bardsey Island out into the Irish Sea. For this view, drive through Aberdaron and keep going to the peninsula point. Check out http://lleyn-wales.co.uk/ or http://www.bardseyboattrips.com/map_e.htm for more information.
