The bay is known for its pristine sandy beach, which stretches for approximately 500 meters. The fine golden sand and crystal-clear waters make it a popular destination for beachgoers, families, and water sports enthusiasts. The beach offers plenty of space for sunbathing, picnicking, and building sandcastles, while the calm waters provide opportunities for swimming, paddleboarding, and kayaking.

Surrounded by rugged cliffs and rocky outcrops, Beddmanarch Bay offers breathtaking views of the Irish Sea. The bay's location makes it a perfect spot for birdwatching, as it attracts a variety of seabirds, including oystercatchers, gulls, and cormorants. The coastal path that runs along the bay is a favorite among hikers and nature lovers, offering panoramic vistas and the chance to spot seals and dolphins in the distance.

Facilities at Beddmanarch Bay are limited, with no lifeguard services or public toilets available. However, a small car park nearby provides convenient access to the bay. Visitors can also find accommodation options and amenities in the nearby villages of Cemaes Bay and Church Bay.

The Betting Stand ( aka Rotten Tower )

** The Penrhos estate was the principal seat on Holy Island and became the home of the Stanley family in 1763. Penrhos house was completely remodelled for John Thomas Stanley in early C19; the Betting Stand is probably contemporary with this remodelling, built as a point from which to view horse racing on a private course. Possibly originally part of the work carried out by Margaret Owen who is said to have 'planted the pleasure gardens' ** Courtesy Cadw
