Dinas Dinlle is a lovely small coastal hamlet at the mouth of the Menai Straight. It has a large sand and pebble Blue Flag beach called Morfa Dinlle with glorious views towards the Lleyn Peninsula and Llanddwyn Island on Anglesey. The area is also designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and part of the land is managed by the RSPB as a Local Nature Reserve. The Reserve is an ideal habitat for nesting lapwings.

October 11, 2022, Dinas Dinlle Hillfort

Dinas Dinlle hillfort dates back to the Iron Age and lies above a beautiful beach in North Wales. It may have been built for defences thousands of years ago but it's been used as such far more recently. Atop the hill are Second World War defences as well. Part of the fort has eroded into the sea, giving it a rather spectacular position on the very edge of the land.
