Beaches
Miles of golden sands and dunes. Great for sunbathing, beach fun, and walking, but not so great for swimming as its at the mouth of the Dee Estuary. Better to head to the beaches nearer prestatyn for sea swimming. Car parks available. The main carpark at the bottom of the main strip may be closed on occasion due to tides. But if you take a left just after the Talacre Beach resort, there is a second better carpark that will be open at all times during the day.

Beautiful historic town, stunning seafront, and a pier. Add to that attractions at the Great Orme such as the Tramway up the hill, Llandudno's world famous goats and much more.

Food Scene
For an amazing steak, this is the place to try. BUT... if you like your steak burnt.... sorry, well done. this isn't the place for you. They cook each type of steak as it should be best served. meaning some steaks are limited to a medium cook rather than well done. But if you like your steaks cooked properly, I heartily recommend this restaurant.
