North Wales coast reccie - a few hidden gems

Recommended Posts

Had a fantastic run out yesterday (Saturday) what great weather this weekend!

 

Drove up to Anglesey - hmm was'nt impressed too flat really for a future Zed run out I thought - although the A5 was ok - no one around....

Best bit though was this little gem I never knew about, off the A4080 -near Aberfraw I think it was what a great little place?

 

Fab beach on Angelsey

Sun Sand Sea and ......350Z Roadster with the roof down! :teeth:

Decided not to do the other side of the Anglesey coast as was getting on in the day so drove down a A499 towards Pwhelli - then onto Abersoch, they are finally building a new wider road over there on the coast (10 years since I last drove down there) its about time!

Fab scenery all the way, stopped off for a few bits at Asda in Pwhelli, as I am driving off I hear a little lad say to his mum WOW! look at that car mum! Yes its a really nice car that dear - she said :teeth:

 

Anyway onto Penhros - which was the real reason for my visit, then to Abersoch - crickey thats changed - its like the French Riviera - loads of posh boats and posh people in posh cars with orange tans etc ..

 

Only place I could park up and take a snap but fab location!

Then took a wrong turn and ended up going further down the coast - Llanengan - again another hidden gem of a beach!

 

Anyway it was getting onto 7pm time to get home - fired up the Sat Nav and offski went through Pwhelli turned off down the A497 towards Cricieth then onto Portmadoc A487 past Portmerien, I stopped off here, been before. I thought as a possible Zed run out location it would be a good place to pop in - £7 per person. You can pretend to be Number 6 !

 

Then A470 > A4241 toward Bala > A494>Corwen A5104 > A55 and past Chester then M56 and homeski!

 

Saturday in Wales - Zero traffic - just what Zed owners like and twisty bits!
