I call it the Secret Pier because many would never imagine Bangor in North Wales even possessed a pier. But yes, it is approx 470 metres in length and believed to be the nineth longest in England & Wales. Built by the victorians and completed in 1896 it fulfilled the ambitions of the many to "walk on water," to relax and be entertained. To this day it provides stunning views across the Menai Straits towards the Isle of Anglesey and looking back you can view a backdrop of the Welsh mountains. How to unlock the Secret. Travel along the A5 (Beach Road) at the far end of the City. The road has a sharp right hand bend. There, look for Garth Road, a narrow side exit leading away and lined with an array of houses. Along Garth Road for a short distance will lead you to the pier. Well worth a visit, not only to take you back in time 123 years. Yet to this day in gratitude to an ongoing program of maintenance there is still a special feeling Walking on Water. To the traveller, well worth a visit.

This is an excellent beach, with plenty of places to walk to, remembering to watch the tide. 2 excellent gastro pubs, Ship Inn and the Boatyard. We had an excellent family meal for 9 on 2 tables, outside under the gazebo of the Boatyard. The food and service were first class, with other diners "socially spaced"

I cannot visit Llandudno without a walk along its long pier, At the beggining of the pier is the usual amusement arcade, as you walk along you find small shops selling all kinds of things from clothes to sea side orniments along with several kiddie rides. at the end of the pier is a licenced bar and a cafe selling food and ice creams etc. If you look back you get a full view of the bay snd seafront hotels and the side of the Great Orme and its chair lift.

This a great addition to Beaumaris as you can have a nice walk along the pier and take in the fantastic views. You can also pick up the various boat trips from here.

Having stayed in Premier Inn I had to go through it in order to get to town. Lots of little boats but some of coffee shops were closed maybe through covid 19 or closed for winter.
