Islands



Maen Gwenonwy and Porth Cadlan with the Gwylan Islands in the background
 

There are a few islands around the coast of Llŷn, all of them being around the south western section of the coast between Abersoch and Braich-y-Pwll (the tip of the peninsula).

Click on an island or islands you would like to find out more about:

Ynyoedd St. Tudwal
(St. Tudwal's Islands)
Ynysoedd Gwylan
(Gwylan Islands)
Ynys Enlli
(Bardsey Island)
Maen Gwenonwy
Maen Gwenonwy

The difference between Maen Gwenonwy and all the other islands off Llŷn is that at low tide, it isn't actually an island. The island's close proximity to the coast means a bar has formed across to it.

Maen Gwenonwy is located just off Porth Ysgo, to the northeast of the Gwylan Islands. Porth Cadlan is the connecting beach between the island and the mainland.

The closest the public can get to Maen Gwenonwy is the top of the cliffs between the island and Porth Ysgo, attempts shouldn't be made to get on to the island from the land.
