Discover Caernarfon’s Historic Waterfront and North Wales Coast

Caernarfon is a medieval town overlooking the Menai Strait, with a working harbour, historic streets and views towards Anglesey. Its coastal holiday homes include traditional cottages near the town centre and properties overlooking the waterfront. Although Caernarfon is not a traditional beach resort, several sandy beaches are within easy reach.

 

Caernarfon Castle, Harbour and Coastal Walks

Caernarfon Castle is one of North Wales’s best-known landmarks, overlooking the River Seiont and the Menai Strait. Built during the reign of Edward I, the castle and surrounding town walls are part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The waterfront has a marina, cafés and restaurants, while the old town has narrow streets and independent shops. The Wales Coast Path passes through Caernarfon, providing walks beside the Menai Strait.

Across the water, Anglesey has several sandy beaches, including Newborough and Rhosneigr. Visitors considering an island holiday can find a wide choice of Anglesey beach cottages.

 

Dinas Dinlle Beach, Welsh Highland Railway and Local Attractions

Dinas Dinlle is one of the closest beaches to Caernarfon, with a long stretch of sand and shingle overlooking Caernarfon Bay. The beach has parking, cafés and views towards the Llŷn Peninsula. Above the shoreline are the remains of an Iron Age hillfort.

The Welsh Highland Railway departs from Caernarfon and runs through Eryri National Park towards Porthmadog, passing mountain scenery and the village of Beddgelert.

Other nearby attractions include Segontium Roman Fort, just outside the town centre, and the National Slate Museum in Llanberis.
