25 minutes

Beaumaris

Spend time in Beautiful Beaumaris. You can tour the moated castle that dates from 1295 (entry ticket not included), indulge yourself in the boutique shops or just wander round this beautiful little town by the sea with views to Snowdonia.

1 hour, 10 minutes

Trefignath Burial Chamber

Trefignath, Holyhead

See this little piece of ancient history. The oldest of the 3 burial chambers here is 5500 years old. They may be small, but they are very old; older than Stonehenge or the Pyramids! Learn about Anglesey's long and unique history, learning how the island got its name.

50 minutes

South Stack Cliffs RSPB Reserve

South Stack Road, RSPB South Stack Visitor Centre, Holyhead, LL65 1YH

Stand on top of the stunning cliffs, looking down at the lighthouse far below. Birdwatchers will see a range of seabirds; we can provide the binoculars!
Note; some cruises depart at 5pm and we always ensure that you are back at the port an hour early, so this part of the trip will have to be missed if your ship is one that departs early. The owners of the lighthouse usually offer morning tours there, we would recommend that you do this as well if your ship departs at 5pm. Unfortunately, there is not time to go down the 400+ steps to the lighthouse, but the views are best from the top and it saves your knees the hard work!
