out and about - 2015

 

03 July 2015 .............. Malltraeth Bay and Llanddwyn Island

 

After a couple of days of grey weather, the sun came out again, so it was back to Malltraeth Bay.

Sadly the sun didn`t last, after a while a cloud layer came over from the south west, the sun got a bit shy, so it wasn`t so warm.

However I still got three swims in, then headed off to have a look at Llanddwyn Island.

Out at the far end of Llanddwyn Island, and the island Ynys yr Adar had a fair number of cormorants on it.

Up on the hill, and looking down on the newer of the two lighthouses on Llanddwyn Island - this is Tŵr Mawr, with a good view across to much of the lower end of the Lleyn Peninsula - funny to think that I had been paddling over there just a couple of days ago.

Tŵr Mawr is a great place to look out and across to Snowdonia and the Lleyn Peninsula - here is Yr Eifl again -

You also get a good view looking away past the older lighthouse Tŵr Bach to the Nanttle Ridge.

And just so it doesn`t feel left out, here is Snowdon, with Moel Elio to the left, and Mynydd Mawr to the right.
