Recommended by
Overview
South Stack Cliffs is an expanse of heathland with dramatic sea cliffs and tremendous views. In spring breeding seabirds, including puffins, can be seen from Ellin's Tower where telescopes are provided and staff are on hand to help. There are also large screen televisions displaying live images of the seabirds which staff can control from Ellin's Tower to give visitors an amazing 'Big Brother' type view of the breeding seabirds. The visitor centre is a good place to start your journey. There is a children's play area and nature garden as well as a café with freshly prepared, locally sourced food.

About the area
Some of the oldest rocks in Britain form the 125-mile coastline of the 85 square mile Anglesey Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, which includes Holy Island with its busy port of Holyhead, the terminus for the Dublin ferry. The terrain inland is mainly a fertile plateau worn flat by the action of the sea, with low ridges and shallow valleys, while the sheer limestone cliffs of the east coast and on the north coast at Holyhead Mountain represent some of the most spectacular sea cliffs in Britain.
