Llyn Pwmp is a small freshwater lake located on the island of Anglesey, off the northwest coast of Wales. Spanning an area of approximately 2 hectares, this picturesque body of water is nestled amidst a diverse landscape, surrounded by lush vegetation and rolling hills.

The lake is fed by several small streams, which bring in fresh water from the surrounding hills and contribute to its crystal-clear appearance. Llyn Pwmp is also known for its relatively shallow depth, averaging around 2 meters, making it an ideal habitat for a variety of aquatic plants and animals.

The shores of Llyn Pwmp are characterized by a mix of reeds, rushes, and other wetland vegetation, creating a freshwater marsh ecosystem.

The tranquility and natural beauty of Llyn Pwmp make it a popular destination for nature enthusiasts and photographers. Visitors can enjoy leisurely walks around the lake, observing the abundant wildlife and taking in the scenic surroundings. The calm waters of the lake also provide opportunities for fishing and boating, attracting both locals and tourists.
