Our local pub, Brondanw Arms. It is known locally as The Ring as there is an old iron ring where boats were moored. The sea used to come up to the pub before Mr Madoc built the Cob in Porthmadog. There is often live music and it has a great garden from which to enjoy the spectacular views.
Y Garreg Shop has a variety of local and ethical products and serves food all day (except Sundays) from 8am breakfast. The pizzas look amazing.

Fantastic long beach where you can park on the sand. You can walk for miles in either direction to Borth y Gest and on to Porthmadog to the east or to Criccieth to the West. If you head towards Criccieth check out the amazing caves at the end of the beach. The tide does come in quickly so don't park too low down!
