Tidal skerry off Ynys Llanddwyn

This rock is a skerry at high tide, but since it is now near low water, it is easily accessible over the small tombolo beach (after a short scramble down from the busy path).

Landing beach at Ynys Llanddwyn

For sea kayakers who have paddled out of Menai Strait over Caernarfon Bar (which can be quite rough if the wind opposes the tide) this is one of the first landing places to catch breath and warm up - I remember being very glad of it on one of my early paddles (out from Plas Menai in 2002 on a circumnavigation of Anglesey). In much calmer weather today, there is an open canoe which is hiding behind the skerry in the centre of the view - not a boat to be here with in a lot of wind.

Saint Dwynwen's Cross

Amongst the natural scenery of Ynys Llanddwyn, for some reason the photographer's eye is nonetheless attracted to the man-made, maybe at least partly (in geograph terms) because such objects are readily located on a map. Beyond the church and the cross, across Llanddwyn Bay lies the beach of Newborough Warren and the walk out to Abermenai Point.
