The most northerly village in Wales, Cemaes is set on Anglesey’s wildest and most unspoilt stretch of coastline, most of which is now cared for by the National Trust.

Cemaes Bay is a large, natural, horseshoe cove and encloses a sheltered harbour with two beautiful beaches.

Cemaes Bay Village

The village itself has many local amenities for visitors, including a general store,  butcher, hairdresser, pharmacy, cafe, fish & chip shop, post office, and a craft shop. There are two pubs, Ye Olde Vigour Inn, and The Harbour Hotel, all of which serve excellent food. The town of Holyhead is only a 20-minute drive away and offers all the usual amenities as well as the opportunity to hop on a ferry to Dublin for the day!!!

Originally a fishing village, it became a centre for shipbuilding and exporting marble and limestone, used to build many of Liverpool’s buildings.

Maritime activity is at the old stone pier where boat trips to Skerries Lighthouse and the Isle of Man can be arranged with local boat owners.

At the eastern entrance to the bay is Llanadrig and St Patrick’s Church and cave, where it is said Patrick set off to Ireland from.

Further east is Dinas Gynfor prehistoric hill fort and the atmospheric small port of Llanlleiana from where China clay was once exported.
