Llandudno Tourist Information: Pier, Beach, and Colwyn Bay

Another unique feature of Llandudno is it's pier, extending for 376m, designed by Charles Henry Driver and first opened in 1878. The first pier built here in 1857 was destroyed in a storm. The shape of Llandudno's Pier is unusual, it jutts out from the shore in a T shaped 45 degree turn and has a number of kiosks along it's stretch. You wouldn't know it had been damaged by fire in 1990, as renovation work was swift and done with care to restore it's former glory.

Llandudno Pier is one of the most beautiful Victorian Piers in the UK. This combined with two glorious sandy beach bays give Llandudno a real edge.

Llandudno Beaches

As beaches go, Llandudno and Colwyn Bay have some of the best, with most having achieved the ENCAM Seaside Award for the highest water quality. North Shore beach at Llandudno is awardwinning, and neighbouring quiet West Shore with it's distinctive sand dunes is also a superb beach.

North Shore beach has a Tidy Britain Seaside Award. With it's delightful crescent shape and golden sands, bordered by the historic pier, it's a North Wales beach with great character. An elegant promenade runs alongside the 3 mile stretch of North Shore beach which is framed by it's two headlands. West Shore beach faces onto Snowdonia and Anglesey - expect splendid views of both from this Llandudno beach.

Plenty of opportunity for fishing on Llandudno's Pier (see the Victorian Angling Centre, Tel: 530663 situated at the entrance to the pier).
