Down the Lleyn Peninsula

After Janes triumphal arrival yesterday we enjoyed an evening in the bars of Caernarfon before leaving at 7 this morning to face the other famous Caernarfon bar.....the formidable Caernarfon Bar marking the exit.... or entrance of the Menai Straits

Thankfully , after a uneventful crossing back into the Irish Sea we enjoyed a boring motor sail against strong head winds and were happy to drop anchor at Porth Dinllaen by early afternoon

We initially couldn’t leave the boat because of strong wind. However by teatime we were able to get ashore for a walk and a drink in the Ty Coch

This is a beautiful seaside village owned by the National Trust and which once housed an Iron Age fort. Tomorrow we tackle Bardsey Sound en route to Pwhelli
