Advantages: Plenty to do and see

Disadvantages: None

I have just had a wonderful day at Beaumaris in Anglesey. The weather was fantastic with plenty of sunshine and a cool sea breeze. We first drove down the main street to the large car park opposite the castle. It was very easy to find and park. We then wondered back along the main road to look at the different shops on route. We also noticed a doll's museum, the old court house and of course the magnificant medieval castle, which was started to be built in 1295!There is a good range of shops to wonder round and plenty of places to eat. However the highlight of the day was crab fishing off the pier. All the equipment needed, reel and bucket can be bought in the local shops and the butcher provides a variety of bait including squid. It is so much fun to do but also interesting to watch. The scenery is lovely and just to sit and watch the boats and yachts sail by is very relaxing. There is also a small beach and paddling pools for younger members of the family. A great day out will definitely go again.

Summary: A brilliant family day out with something to do for all.
