  • Aberdesach beach is set at the base of the Llŷn Peninsula in North Wales, facing out into Caernarfon Bay. An Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) the views will not disappoint. As you look southwestwards along the beach you will see the land rise up into a series of hills and mountains, several of which top out at over 500 metres (1650 ft), rising up from the coast.

    The beach itself at Aberdesach is mostly grey pebbles and rock above the tide line, although as the tide drops plenty of sand is revealed.

    This is a wonderfully remote spot and it certainly won’t be busy. With this in mind, don’t expect anything in the way of facilities, although there is a small car park here.
