At the easternmost point of the island sits Puffin Island, now home to razorbills, guillemots and of course, puffins.To the west of the island lies Trearddur Bay with its Blue Flag beaches, diving, sailing and many coastal walks along the rocky coastline. To the south west there is also Rhosneigr with its open beaches ideal for water sports including windsurfing and kite surfing.
With Holyhead so close visitors can look around the Maritime Museum or stroll across the clifftops at Breakwater Country Park. For those with time to venture further afield, a day trip can be taken from Holyhead port to Dublin or alternatively to the mountains of Snowdonia.
