Llanfairfechan & Penmaenmawr

About

The area comprises the neighbouring coastal settlements of Llanfairfechan and Penmaenmawr, situated between the mountains of the Carneddau range and the Irish Sea. The long pebble and shingle shoreline is backed by a Victorian-era promenade, with views extending across Conwy Bay to Anglesey. Inland, the landscape rises sharply into enclosed valleys and upland common, marked by ancient quarrying sites.

A significant feature is the extensive saltmarsh and grassland of the Morfa Madryn reserve behind Llanfairfechan's shore, a habitat for overwintering birds. The towns are historically linked to the granite industry, with Penmaenmawr's quarries once supplying stone for national projects. The North Wales Path and other trails connect the coast directly to the mountainous hinterland.
