Walking round Anglesey on the Wales Coast Path

Yesterday I went back to the eastern side of Anglesey to cover part of the Wales Coast Path.

Initially I'd planned to walk on the north coast but with the winds blowing from the SSW and after having fun! walking in them last walk it was the east coast.

So it was a bus from Bangor to Beaumaris then on foot round to Pentraeth.

Not far out of Beaumaris you get great views back over to the Welsh mainland.



















See my previous post for a video of the rest of day's pictures.

Getting used to my Lumix TZ60 camera more. Not really impressed with it's macro function but due to the size of the megapixels you can zoom into a picture quite well!







Reminds me of a bug from Starship Troopers!

Was definitely a good workout covering the normal grassy paths, but with the challenge! of stony beaches and white sand.

Well I can tick another section of the path on Anglesey off :-)

13 miles done yesterday brings total mileage on the island to 39. Over a quarter done!

Wales Coast Path - 100+ Miles


Yesterday I went back to the island of Anglesey to continue walking the Wales Coast Path.

Section to be covered was Cemaes on the north coast round to Church Bay on the west coast.

Weather was cloudy and very windy in parts but still managed to catch the sun!

For those people who enjoy watching birds, you won't be dissapointed.

I spent some time trying to catch oyster catchers but didn't get the photos I wanted!

Taking a break at Trwyn Cemlyn I was rewarded by shooting some slow motion video of one out on the rocks.

You can see the video footage in a previous post.

My favourite spot of the day was a little cove called Hen Borth. There was an abundance of oyster catchers sun bathing on the rocks but I managed to disturb them and they flew off!!

Check out the video on the next post.

Photos of the day are in a previous video post.

So another 12 miles ticked off.

This brings total miles walked to date to 105 miles so broken the 100 mile mark :-)
