Once you have braved the thin, steep downhill road from the village of Llanddona to its namesake beach, you will be more than ready to catch your breath and grab a scoop of Anglesey Ice Cream from the little café on the shore!
The beach is a true haven, and is definitely well worth the trip to get there, with its spacious golden sands and lovely clear waters. There are plenty of activities you can take part in and enjoy here, from your typical sun bathing, beach football and swimming, to the rather more exciting kayaking, wind surfing and even kite surfing.
If you are lucky, you might be able to see dolphins and porpoises from the lighthouse at Port Linus, just a little north from Llanddona Beach. The beach itself also lies on the Anglesey Coastal Path, making it the perfect spot to take a long walk by the sea, or even a lengthy bike ride along the coast.
You can even partake in a spot of sea fishing here – your best bet is, however, to go at night for the better catches, so make sure you are well prepared with a warm coat and some nice food to keep you going throughout those cold hours!
