This site contains a
great deal of practical information about Cemaes and the
surrounding area, including details of places of historical interest,
activities, accommodation and services available to visitors.
Cemaes
is the
most northerly village in Wales and its development has been shaped by the
natural resources available to it. Cemaes Bay is an Area of
Outstanding Beauty, some of which is owned by the National Trust. The
village includes a natural, sheltered harbour that looks north to the
Irish Sea and is the site of ancient settlements, that in more recent
centuries has become a centre for maritime activities.
Since Victorian times,
the picturesque character of Cemaes and the natural beauty of the
Island has attracted many artists. They have responded to the sea and sky
as it changes with the weather, the superb sunsets, the multicoloured rocks and sands exposed on the cliffs and beaches as well as the charm of
Cemaes village.
