Moelfre
A small fishing village on the northeast coast, with a lifeboat station, coastal trails and an ice cream shop, and a walk to Lligwy Beach.
Moelfre is a small fishing village on Anglesey’s northeast coast, famous for its heroic lifeboat history; the 1859 wreck of the Royal Charter took place nearby. At the harbour are the Seawatch Centre maritime heritage centre and the RNLI lifeboat station, which is still in use. The coast path runs north to Lligwy Beach (Traeth Lligwy) and, inland, the Romano-British village ruins of Din Lligwy. The village has cafés and a local ice cream shop. Allow 1–2 hours.
