Morfa Nefyn is a small
village located on the northern coast of the
Llŷn Peninsula in Wales
.
Location & Amenities
It lies on
the crossroads of the B4417 (Nefyn
- Aberdaron
) and B4412 and has been a traditionally
undiscovered destination. More recently, the village has seen a rise
in popularity as house prices in nearby villages on the Llŷn Peninsula such as Abersoch
and Llanbedrog
have risen rapidly. Many homes are now
holiday homes and a complex of holiday apartments has recently been
built by the entrance to the
beach.
The village has a couple of shops, B&B's and hotels.
The
neighbouring town of Nefyn
has more in
the way of shops and services, but for a more comprehensive range,
Pwllheli
is only 7
miles and about 10 minutes down the A497
road.
The beach at Morfa Nefyn is mainly
sand with
small amounts of
shale.
Walking along the
beach to the west is the small, picturesque fishing hamlet of Porthdinllaen
, famous for its pub, the Ty
Coch, which lies at the top of the beach.
Porthdinllaen is also home to the local
lifeboat station which houses an inshore
lifeboat, as well as a dock for the local
Coast Guard.
