Braich Parlwr is a headland located on the western coast of Anglesey, an island off the northwest coast of Wales. It is situated near the village of Cemaes Bay and is known for its stunning natural beauty and rich historical significance.

The headland offers breathtaking panoramic views of the Irish Sea, with its rugged cliffs and pristine beaches. It is a haven for nature enthusiasts, with various species of seabirds, including puffins, razorbills, and guillemots, nesting in the cliffs during the breeding season. The coastal path that runs along Braich Parlwr provides a fantastic opportunity for hikers and walkers to explore the area's coastal scenery.

From a historical perspective, Braich Parlwr has played an important role in the island's past. It was once the site of an Iron Age promontory fort, believed to have been constructed around 500 BC. The fort comprised a series of ditches and ramparts, providing a defensive position overlooking the sea. Today, the remains of the fort can still be seen, adding to the intrigue and allure of the area.

Visitors to Braich Parlwr can take advantage of the nearby amenities in Cemaes Bay, including cafes, restaurants, and accommodation options. The village also offers opportunities for water sports, fishing, and boat trips.

Overall, Braich Parlwr is a must-visit destination for those seeking natural beauty, coastal walks, and a glimpse into the island's ancient past.
