Getting around Anglesey
A car is the easiest way to reach beaches and headlands. Local buses link Bangor, Beaumaris, Llangefni, Newborough and Holyhead, and a coastal bus service runs in summer on some routes. The coast path is ideal for linear walks.
Onward
Cross back to Snowdonia, Conwy or the Llŷn Peninsula. See Getting to Wales.
