We had another week in Anglesey at a lovely caravan once again. So this was another shorter walk where we would also walk back again. We drove to Cemaes Bay and used the free car park we were getting familiar with and made the walk around the corner to the Stag Inn to continue from where we left off last time. A few Meters along the road and we venture off to have a look at the harbour from the harbour walls, last time we visited here there was an old lifeboat in the harbour, this was not here on this occasion so I used a photograph from our last visit. We then continue along the road and leave for another rugged coastline path. Heading towards the old nuclear power station, firstly a walk around Wylfa Head and back and then around the power station at Llanddausaint. Its a bit of a walk around before you end up on the opposite side of the station and back on the coast again, but you are soon met by a pretty little stream and old buildings, then a marshy terrain before heading into Cemlyn Bay, as you approach the bay you see the beach and a lake on the other side of the beach. There are two car parks, my video ends at the second of the two car parks we approached, although we arrived at the first car park and after a short rest we headed back. I came back on the next day to continue filming but only made it across the beach to just before the second car park and we were cut off from by the tide. No problem I thought, we would go back to the car and drive around to the next car park. By the time we walked back and drove around the weather took a turn and black cloudy skies and heavy rain, so we retreated back to our nearby caravan. I added this to the video as I had less footage. So this will be this section of the walk, it's great staying nearby and being able to just pop back. The weather turned out to be a short shower, by the time we were back at the caravan it brightened up. Nevermind, we went to an animal fun place Pili Palas Nature World instead.

Starting at the bottom of High Street where it merges with Bridge Street next to the Old Vigour Inn, from bridge street turn right towards the Stag Inn, from High Street bear straight ahead towards the Stag Inn. ///zone.sobs.directors Head towards The Stag Inn, passing the right hand side of the building following Ffordd Y Traeth ///mandates.jaundice.silly follow the road and you soon pass a beach on your right hand side. At the far end of the beach where the road bends left, take the smaller road to your right that heads up a slight hill. ///edits.spider.derailed At the top of the little hill you have the choice of continuing straight ahead or a slightly longer walk by turning right just after a house. ///bravery.costly.highs We turned right along a narrow path alongside the wall of the house. At the end of the narrow path you head left onto a larger path. ///reminds.script.innovate Follow the path towards the coast and it turns left just before the sea and then joins back with the road you were originally on. Continue straight ahead here taking the smaller path along the coastline after the stone bench and table. ///gift.serves.pursue Keep to this smaller path alongside the coastline. It soon veers slightly inland and then back out coastward to avoid a little inlet, as you go around the inlet then take the coastside path to your right. ///hardens.dragon.perused Continue around and this path eventually joins back with the other path that split after the little inlet. ///brightens.curtains.stray turn right and follow the path with slight downhill gradient, bushes to your right and fields to your left. There is a beach down below, continue along the path and just after a path leads down to the beach to your right, the ahead path we continue on turns left and then right and through a field, eventually you pass into another field and turn immediate right ///comic.removing.mixes This path follows the edges of the field and heads back towards the coastline and you head towards a beach down below, passing through a hole in a stone wall and then bearing right ///panels.cackling.surfaces passing above the beach to your right, a short walk and you pass through a gate and then head right ///legwork.impaired.clockwork on a smaller path, this path gets a little narrow and with a drop on your right hand side, it may not be suitable for all. Follow the narrow path around and then a sharp left turn and up a rocky outcrop near ///oddly.firelight.champions where you soon pick up the path again. Eventually passing what looks like an old lookout which was boarded up on our visit. you keep to the outskirts of the area now as you head back around and head towards the large power station. Following a lightly trodden path until you eventually head to a gate along a stone wall. ///potions.deflation.flushed Pass through and head straight soon passing through the gap in another stone wall. Continue and the signs point you right towards a small wooded area. Follow the path through the small woods, passing a couple of picnic benches and you head towards an old metal double gate, bearing right of the gate there is a smaller gate to pass through leading onto a small parking area. ///resists.campsites.help There is a slightly larger car park to your left. Continue straight through the gate and onto the lane, a couple of Meters along the lane and you turn right on the dirt path into the woods near ///surcharge.hook.quintet. Keep to the pathway following the signs through the woods. This will take you up some steps, and some and then down some, getting glimpses of the power station along through the woods. Eventually you come down some steps and walk underneath a pylon. ///usages.defectors.codes Continue under and along the path until it leads out onto an access road to the power station. Turn left on the road and follow it around where it bends left. Continue along the road at a small zebra crossing look for a signposted path on your right hand side, turn right here, a short way along the path there is a track for vehicles and a small segregated path on the left hand side, take this fenced off small path. ///condense.pebbles.sprayed Continue along the path which follows the track, the path rejoins the track near ///workers.youths.smiling, head left onto the track for a short way, at a junction in the track there is another segregated path on the left hand side, take this path again. ///fracture.organic.resonates This follows the track and where it rejoins, cross the track and take the path on the opposite side, this time leading away from the track. ///rating.spectacle.crinkled This path leads out onto a field. Bear straight on the field ///rises.brain.scrolled heading to the right hand side of a fenced off woodland in front of you towards ///brick.shadowed.sunk as the path leaves the field it heads down to a stream and an old building. Head down and cross the stream at the large stone bridge ///engineers.symphonic.eyeliner and then head slightly right of the building. ///rolled.vies.headset heading past some bushes, you will then head right heading towards the narrow path/gap through the bushes. ///bake.overheard.crusted and around to a shingly rocky beach on your right hand side. We had to leave the path and use the beach for a short section here as it was very muddy, at the far end of the beach look for the small path following the coastline near ///yummy.dispenser.country We had to climb a bit of a rocky crop. The path follows the coastline and then enters a marshy area, ///encrusted.saucepan.birthdays follow the signs through this area and lightly trodden paths through until you see Cemlyn Bay where you follow the coast around to the left. ///warned.elated.boomed There is a lightly trodden path near the coastline that eventually leads down to the first of two car parks at Cemlyn. ///miracles.downhill.harshest Walk through the car park and head straight at the car parks entrance. (There is an inland route here, following the road as at the far end of the beach you can be cut off from the second car park at high tide - This happened to us) Low tide route, walk between the beach and the lake to your left. Follow the long shingle pebble beach ans at the far edge there is a stone bridge crossing the water joining the lake and sea. ///cubic.drags.bulges As you cross the bridge, just ahead is the next car park where this section of the walk ends. This car park partially floods at high tide and gets cut off from this bridge. So please beware. The next part of our walk continues from this car park. Bryn Aber Car Park. ///grades.cubed.dwarf
