Things to do in Colwyn Bay

No. 1 of Best Things to Do in Conwy

Conwy Castle

The castle was built between 1277 and 1307 and can be regarded as one of the more majestic Welsh forts built by Edward I. The castle stands on a rugged rock overlooking the estuary National Park. Exploring every corner of the castle is a very unforgettable experience, and the cramped stairs are difficult to walk, but they are not meaningful. Standing on the battlements, you can not only see the magnificent and complex construction process of Conwy Castle, but also look at the vast bay and the scattered towns of Conwy, and the photos taken are particularly beautiful.

Llandudno Pier

Llandudno Pier is located in Llandudno, Conwy, Wales, United Kingdom, and is a historic seaside pier that attracts many visitors. Built in the late 19th century, it still retains its traditional Victorian style and has become an important landmark on the Llandudno coastline. Extending into the sea, Llandudno Pier is an ideal place for a stroll and to enjoy the sea breeze. Along the pier, visitors can enjoy beautiful sea views and see the scenery of the surrounding town. The sides of the pier are lined with many shops, cafes, and snack stalls, where visitors can enjoy authentic British snacks or taste local Welsh specialties. In addition, Llandudno Pier is a place full of entertainment facilities. The pier features various amusement rides, arcade games, and souvenir shops, making it suitable for the whole family to enjoy. Here, visitors can not only relax but also experience classic seaside entertainment.

Bodnant Garden - National Trust

Great Orme Country Park

Great Orme Country Park is a limestone headland on the North Wales coast, not only boasting magnificent scenery, a wide variety of wildlife, and Neolithic remains, but also designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest due to its unique geological features. The park features a visitor center and has three clearly marked walking trails, among which the Haulfre Gardens Trails is one of the easier ones. Visitors can hike to the summit or take the Great Orme Tramway to explore. This tramway was built during the Victorian era and departs from Church Walks, running approximately every 20 minutes. In addition, taking the cable car is also a highly recommended experience. As one of the longest cable cars in the UK, it departs from Happy Valley Garden above the pier and operates subject to weather conditions.
