This is an amazing experience - there are 3 zip sites near to us and easy to get confused which activity is at which site so worth spending a bit of time looking at the zip world website and weighing up the travel vs activity!

We love this place, its very sweet and all outdoors and quite eco focused, lots of rides and entertainment. Nice day out for younger kids. Food not great, usual offer but loads of picnic places - I used to just stop at Waitrose en route and buy sandwiches. To be honest I haven't been in peak summer season so not sure if it would be really overwhelmingly busy so maybe check the reviews!

If you want to travel this far, tie in a day at Borth - y - gest with a trip to Dylans Criccieth. Borth y gest is the most special series of sandy coves that you walk along wooden boardwalks to reach. Just idyllic. Careful of the tides here. Park in the harbour then walk to your right along the clifftop to find these magic beaches

One of our favourite beaches but can get very busy. But has a carpark and toilets and a good beach cafe with pizza oven etc. A lovely thing to do is to walk from Anns Pantry in Moelfre to Lligwy or the other way. About one hour walk. Sometimes I would do one way with the kids and get Robin to drive the route and pick us up etc. Or if kids are up for walking, park and set off from Moelvre, spend time at Lligwy then walk back.

Newborough nature reserve and beach is just stunning and you can walk along this beach to Llanddwyn Island. There is a pine forest that leads onto a beach. Huge car park. Possibly the biggest beach attraction. Great running and cycling trails. If we really wanted to show off a sandy beach in Anglesey it would probably be this one....

this is a lovely pub with great food, you will need to book but what makes it amazing is that if you eat there and then go for a walk along the coast in Rhoscolyn it is just the prettiest beach walk. Top of the island.

A stunning beach. Usually quiet as more of a locals place. Bit of a hairy journey to get there as down very steep roads so lots of people don't go. Not for nervous drivers. You can get there along the top roads from where we live - ie turn right out of our house go through caim and then along the tops to Llanddona.

this is just a beautiful seaside version of Dylans, An incredible Art Deco inspired kidney shaped building. One of my favourite things is to go to Borth y gest beach for the day and then have an early tea with the kids at Dylans Criccieth but this is about an hours drive so only if you want to see the Llyn Peninsular side
