For breath-taking views and spectacular sights, we’re recommending a visit to the National Slate Museum and Dinorwic Quarry on this #ThingsToDoThursday
From learning about the history of slate mining in Wales to taking in the amazing (and Instagrammable) views, this hidden gem is certainly a Eryri (Snowdonia) spot not to be missed on your North Wales adventure.
Shall we let you in on a secret?! One of our absolute favourite places to watch the sun set in Wales is at South Stack lighthouse off the coast of Anglesey.
Whether you go to check out the sun sinking behind the horizon, take a visit to the lighthouse itself, or do some twitching at RSPB South Stack Cliffs Reserve it’s an absolute must do on your Anglesey adventure.

It’s #ThingsToDoThursday and one of our favourite things to do on Anglesey is explore Porth Wen Brickworks. This beautiful, if slightly spooky spot, is a real hidden gem. It’s not the easiest to access but it’s well worth the effort as you’ll feel like you’re on a movie set or have stepped back in time. Just remember these are ruins so be careful as you explore.

It’s #ThingsToDoThursday and this week our recommendation is for an amazing Anglesey adventure – a trip to see Puffin Island.
Climb aboard a traditional cruise boat departing from Beaumaris Pier and set sail towards Puffin Island. Navigate the Menai Strait, take in lighthouses, shipwrecks and caves, and spot plenty of wildlife, including (at the right time of year) these brightly coloured beaked birds.
